Effects of New Additives (Lanolin) on The Electro-Deposition of Copper Powder

Abstract

New organic compound (Lanolin) is added to the electrolyte of copper powderdeposition unit. The influences of the copper concentration, current density, and specificsurface on the apparent density of the produced powder had been studied. Also the meangrain size of powder, mass of deposited powder are been calculated. The bestconcentration of lanolin is 0.7% at which grain size deposits are smooth and fine (about 93% less than 53 micron) and had high purity of 99.9%.
