Nickel coatings benefit from their high corrosion resistance and low porosity content. However,
improving these properties seems to be necessary for special purposes which can be achieved through pulse
plating. The most important parameters to enhance surface quality of Nickel pulse plating on ST12 steel have
been discussed in this research. Morphology of the coatings have been investigated by metallographic and
AFM experiments. Reported morphology of the coating for all cases was even except for that of direct current
(DC).
