Abstract

We study the deposition of thin silver films onto a magnesium surface in aqueous solutions of silver complexes and in organic aprotic solvents. We show that compact silver films with good adhesion are deposited in aqueous solutions of [Ag(CN)2]− cyanocomplex under hydrodynamic conditions. In solutions of less stable complexes {thiocyanate [Ag(CNS)4]3− and thiocarbamide [Ag(thio)4]+}, the contact deposition of only disperse silver is observed. In dimethylformamide solutions of [Ag(CNS)4]3− complexes, thin silver films with good adhesion to a magnesium surface are formed. We also describe some specific features of the morphology of silver deposits, formed on a magnesium surface.
