    • Abstract

       

      Electrodeposition of zinc on steel was obtained from acid chloride bath containing condensation products (CP) of 3,4,5-trimethoxy benzaldehyde (TMB) and chitosan (CTN). The effect of bath constituents, pH, current density and temperature on the nature of deposit was studied by Hull cell experiments. The bath composition and operating parameters were optimized. The adhesion, ductility and corrosion resistance of the deposits were discussed. Throwing power and current efficiency values under different plating conditions were measured. SEM photomicrographs of the deposit were taken to study the surface morphology. The inclusion of addition agent in the deposit was investigated from IR spectrum of the scrapped deposit. The consumption of brightener in the lab scale is 10 mLL-1 for 1000 amp-h.
