Usage: technical; commonly used in manufacturing and materials science

1. a metal coating or layer produced by electrodeposition
Usage: technical

Examples

• The factory uses electrodeposit techniques to apply a protective copper layer to the steel components.
• Engineers electrodeposit nickel onto the circuit board to improve conductivity.
• The electrodeposit on the jewelry was uniform and highly durable.
• To electrodeposit gold onto the watch case, the jeweler used a specialized electrolytic cell.
• The quality of the electrodeposit depends on the current density and bath composition.
• Modern manufacturing relies on electrodeposit processes for corrosion resistance.
