| Abstract: | In this paper,super-thin free-standing diamond grains-nickel composite film in large area were prepared by using electrotyping method,which were used to make super-thin cutting blades.Scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to analyse the characteristics of the film.It was found that the agitation velocity and the place of impeller strongly affected the content and uniformity of diamond grains in deposited composite film when the other parameters were the same.The best film was deposited when agitation velocity was 180-220 r/m and the impeller Was placed in the lower part of the solution.The obliquity of cathode strongly affected the content of diamond grains in the film,and the content reached maximum when the obliquity was kept at 45 degree.The hanging orientation of cathode strongly affected the uniformity of the thickness of the film,and uniform films were deposited when cathode was intermissively circumrotated by 90 degree in the:plane itself during deposition.The fluid field in solid-liquid stirred electrolytic solution was analysed by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).And the influences of agitation veloeity,the place of impeller and the obliquity of cathode on the content of diamond grains in the film were explained.With Euler-Lagrange model,the just-suspended speed of impeller in solid-liquid stirred electrolytic tank Was predicted by using Zwietering formula,the predicted speed was and it was consistent with experimental result. |
