In battery and capacitor applications, ceramic coatings can be applied to electrode materials and current collectors to enhance their performance and durability. For example, ceramic coatings can improve the stability of lithium metal anodes in lithium-metal batteries, preventing dendrite formation and enhancing battery safety .
Electroplating is a widely used process around the world and a very economical process in manufacturing industries. It is simply a process of depositing a layer of one metal onto the surface of another metal through the use of an electrical current [1, 2]. Every electroplating setup always has three main components as shown in Fig. 2 below.
Emergence of New Materials and Applications: Another factor driving innovation in modern electroplating is the emergence of new applications and materials. For example, electroplating is now being used to deposit coatings on non-metallic materials, such as plastics and ceramics, which require special processes and technologies.
The electroplating process can be energy-intensive, and the deposition of a metal layer can be slow and inefficient. Advances in process control, such as the use of automated systems and real-time monitoring, can improve the efficiency of electroplating.
The development of new plating solutions allowed for the plating of a wider range of metals, including nickel, copper, and zinc. New equipment, such as barrel plating machines and continuous plating lines, improved the efficiency and consistency of the electroplating process .
Meanwhile, a simple electroplating setup primarily consists of four components namely: an anode, a cathode, the electrolytic solution and a power source . All these components can come in various types, kinds and configurations depending on the design and area of application.
