Abstract

The aim of this research is to obtain electrodeposits of copper-tin over mild steel substrate. The plating parameters were studied and a model is developed using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). The electrodeposition of copper-tin was carried out from an alkaline cyanide bath. Copper content of coatings in alloy deposition was determined by using X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy. The results were used to create a model for the plating characteristics and also for studies using ANN. The ANN model is compared with the conventional mathematical regression model for analysis.

Keywords: electroplating, copper content, regression, neural network, model.
