The effect of stirring on the formation of electrodeposited composite coating (Cu/Al_2O_3 -- in acidic plating bath) has been studied. The adsorption of Ni~(2+), Cu~(2+), H~+ and surfactants by the particles of Al_2O_3, SiC, as well as the effect of adsorption on the formation of Cu/Al_2O_3, Ni/SiC and Ni-P/SiC coating have also been investigated by measuring of electrochemical parameters (potentials, polarization curves, current efficiency and differential capacity etc.) and concentration of Ni~(2+), Cu~(2+), H~+. The results show that composite coating can be obtained under the appropriate agitation. The adsorption of cation by the particles, which increase the positive charge carried by the particles, intensifies electrostatic forces on the cathode surface. So it's benifical to the increase of the particles content in the coating. It has been found that the composite ability of particles of the electroless plating is much higher than that of the electroplating. It can be suggested that there are active centres on the coating surface, they will chemically adsorb the particles and increase the content of particles in the coating. The results indicate that the role of stirring is the key factor to form the composite coating.
