Multimaterial Deposition Through Selective Jet Electrodeposition
摘要
Multimaterial electrodeposition is a highly versatile technique with widespread applications in various industries, offering precise control over the deposition of multiple materials. In biomedical fields, it also enables the development of bioactive surfaces for implants. This article delves into an investigation of depositing a copper-based multimaterial (Co–Cu–Fe–Ni–Zn) using the selective jet electrodeposition (SJED) process. Its ability to selectively deposit materials also creates intricate patterns or graded coatings. This study examines how process parameters, namely applied potential and horizontal scanning velocity, influence the height and width of the deposited layer, and composition of the deposition. A bead consisting of a multilayer is deposited using an additive manufacturing method, utilizing different sets of applied potential and horizontal scanning velocity. The article provides detailed insights into the measurement methods for evaluating each bead, emphasizing precision and accuracy in characterizing the deposited layers. Overall, this research contributes to advancing the understanding and optimization of multimaterial electrodeposition techniques, particularly in the context of selective jet electrodeposition processes.
