Technics research of depositing Cu/ carbon nanotubes compositecoating by electroplating with ultrasonic agitation

In order to disperse the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) equably in the composite and develop the interconnection between CNTs and the copper mat rix , composite elect roplating with the aid of ult rasonic agitation was employed to prepare the copper/ CNTs composite coatings. SEM was used to observe their morphology. It was verifiedthat the surface of the composite is quite smooth ; CNTs are equably dispersed throughout the mat rix , and in addition , the interfacial binding between CNTs and copper was well. In these cases , a brief understanding of the effectof the ult rasonic agitation on the codeposition was ascertained.
