Abstract

The effect of the brightener on the behavior of the silver electrodeposition in cyanide solution was studied by potentiostatically step and rotating dise electrode(RDE) as well as X_ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM).It was found that the silver electrodeposition was not changed by the addition of the brightener to the fundarmental solution.But it apparently increased the solution's micro_leveling effection and remarkably improved the coating's surface lightness.The coating's orientation isn't changed by the addition of the brightener in the light of the XRD result.The effectivness of the brightener was also discussed by the half_wideth of the XRD.
