The constant current interrupter method has been applied to the study of irreversible polarization of cathodic deposition of nickel.
The interrupter was constructed by a mercury wetted electromagnetic relay combined with thyratron. Its performance characteristics were checked by the electrodeposition of nickel from nickel sulfate bath as well as from Watt's type plating bath.
The resistance polarization, the differential capacity of electric double layer, and also the activation overpotential were determined by the analysis of potential decay curves.
