Smooth, bright copper electrodeposits were obtained in the range of 2.0-10.0A/dm2 from Cu(CF3COO)2 (600g/dm3)-MeOH baths at 40°C with a cathodic current efficiency was about 100%.
As bath temperature increased, however, H2 evolution from the cathode during the electrodeposition was observed cathodic current efficiency decreased.
If, however, electrodeposition was carried out at lower bath temperature and current density, bath oxidation occurred at the anode and anodic current efficiency was about 20%.
