The highest hardness value and the finest grain size were obtained using a ramp-down waveform with relaxation time. The experimental results show that compared with the conventional rectangular waveform and with relaxation time, the hardness value can be improved by about 28% when a ramp-down waveform, also with relaxation time, is used. These results are supported by theoretical predictions and the study of the surface morphology of the electroforms by scanning electron microscopy. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10397/31382 | ISSN: | 0021-891X | DOI: | 10.1023/A:1004120823907 |
