The effects of rare earth element cerium on composition and electrochemical characteristics of electroless Co-Ni-B alloy were studied in this paper. The alloy component was analyzed using Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) . The plating rate is was determined by electronic balance. The cathode polarization curves and cyclic voltammogram during the electroless deposition were tested by LK998 Ⅱ model electrochemical analytical system. The results show that rare earth element Ce can co-deposit with cobalt-based alloy, and with mass increase of Ce added in aqueous solution, the contents of Co, Ni, Ce in alloy increase and the content of B decreases. Ce can increase deposition rate of alloy in some range. The rare earth makes deposition potential move to positive direction and makes polarizability decrease.

研究了磁场条件下化学镀Co- Ni- B -Ce合金镀层的微观表面形貌、显微硬度和磨损体积。结果表明,化学镀Co- Ni -B合金镀层表面由“圆锥峰”构成,表面较为平整,添加稀土Ce后,镀层变得凹凸不平;在外加磁场下施镀,镀层表面起伏更大。镀液里添加Ce以及在磁场条件下,明显地提高了Co -Ni -B合金镀层的显微硬度和耐磨性,随镀液中Ce添加量增加,合金镀层的硬度和耐磨性都是先增加后降低,当镀液里Ce的添加量为0. 8g/L时,硬度和耐磨性均达到了峰值。
