DECORATION OF 3D NICKEL AND COPPER SURFACES WITH METALLIC NANOPARTICLES AND NANOSTRUCTURES BY GALVANIC REPLACEMENT. MINIREVIEW
The effectiveness of the galvanic replacement method for decorating a porous surface with metal nanoparticles and nanostructures is considered. It is shown that depending on the functional purpose, foam, porous, and dendritic metal 3D substrates are mainly used for modification by galvanic replacement. In particular, these are nickel and copper substrates on which noble metals are deposited. The peculiarities of the formation of nanosized deposits on porous copper and nickel surfaces depending on the structure of the latter and the conditions of galvanic substitution are given.
