Welcome to the Chemical and Galvanic Surface Engineering Department.

Our department conducts research into chemical, anodic and cathodic processes in the liquid phase. These include, in particular:

  • Chemical metal deposition, particularly on electrically non-conductive substrates
  • Electrolytic deposition of single metals and alloys
  • Modelling and simulation of electrochemical processes
  • Anodising, particularly of aluminium
  • Plasma-electrolytic oxidation of aluminium and magnesium
  • Sol-gel processes for promoting adhesion between metals and plastics

The research focuses on resource-efficient and REACH-compliant processes. A key focus is on gaining an understanding of the processes through the use of in-situ sensor technology, which provides insights into the underlying mechanisms, as well as through modelling and simulations using the latest mathematical methods. On this basis, the department develops bespoke electrolytes that enable novel coating systems. The determination of process-microstructure-property relationships is supported by comprehensive coating analysis and complemented by the characterisation of in-service properties such as corrosion and wear behaviour.

Interactive tools for predicting the hardness and wear of Ni-P coatings can be found here:

Motivation & Objectives
Meeting the growing demands in surface engineering – such as hardening surfaces in a targeted manner, for example through plasma nitriding, and determining the required process controls with precision – requires not only an in-depth understanding of the process but also extensive process development. To reduce the amount of experimental work required for this, numerical, model-based simulations are increasingly being used. However, state-of-the-art methods only allow plasma nitriding to be simulated under certain simplifications. Modern developments in mathematical modelling, information technology and mathematical algorithms enable the analysis of complex models with a high degree of precision. The project involves incorporating the effects of nitrogen and carbon contents – specifically their displacement mechanisms and solubility limits – on the phase transformations during plasma nitriding. In addition to mathematical modelling, the inverse calculation of the physical model parameters from plasma-nitrided layers is also a key part of the project. For the simulation, highly stable numerical methods developed in recent years are being put into practice.

Motivation & Objectives
The overall objective of the Hy²Cycle collaborative project is to develop resource-efficient and recyclable cells and stacks for fuel cells (FC) and electrolysers (EL). New concepts for reversible and recyclable high-pressure alkali EL/FC and PEM EL/FC systems are being developed jointly. The development of recycling-friendly designs ranges from cell design through to energy-efficient manufacturing and, as a result of stack development, aims to take into account and implement novel recycling processes in line with a circular economy right from the design stage.

Hy²Cycle is a collaborative project run by the Saxon Hydrogen Union.

Motivation & Objectives
The focus of sub-project B03 is on establishing an active, defined fibre orientation in short- and long-fibre-reinforced plastics (FRP) and a defined transition zone at the interface with continuously reinforced or non-reinforced substructures. Active alignment of the fibres is to be achieved by means of external magnetic excitation in an isostatic state. The research focuses on developing a suitable coating process for the production of magnetically coated carbon fibres (mc-CF), as well as the production of polymer composites incorporating mc-CF, and the associated experimental and numerical investigation.
This sub-project forms part of the DFG Collaborative Research Centre “SFB/TRR 402”. The project is dedicated to the development of novel production technologies for lightweight structures that are resource-efficient, sustainable and, at the same time, high-performance. The aim of these technologies is to significantly reduce energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions both during production and during the operation of vehicles and machinery. The focus is on optimising the transitions between different materials in fibre-reinforced plastic composites. These transitions currently pose one of the greatest challenges for mass production, as they significantly influence the load-bearing capacity and service life of the components. With the help of what is known as 3D grading, the aim is to produce smooth material transitions that are specifically tailored to the load requirements of the components. This method allows for a gradual change in the reinforcement structures, which improves the mechanical properties and optimises material usage.

Motivation & Objectives
Moulded rubber parts are of significant economic importance and are used in many industries, for example as seals in mechanical engineering or as elastic components in the automotive sector. They are usually produced by moulding using tools, followed by vulcanisation. However, this tried-and-tested process is primarily cost-effective for large production runs and restricts design freedom; small production runs and design changes are costly and time-consuming.
Additive manufacturing of vulcanisable rubber compounds is still at an early stage of research. Initial attempts using screw extruder prototypes have so far been limited to simple geometries. Challenges include developing a formulation that is both printable and vulcanisable, ensuring dimensional stability during curing, and precisely controlling adhesion, particularly in multi-material applications.
Suitable materials and printing systems enable the rapid, tool-free production of prototypes, spare parts, complex geometries and multi-material components, such as rubber-metal combinations. The project therefore examines the entire process – from the formulation of the rubber compound, the development of a print head and research into 3D printing parameters, right through to the study of adhesion between rubber and metal surfaces.

Motivation & Objectives
The project aims to develop a green and smart electroplated coating using modular, robot-based electroplating with in-line process monitoring. This enables the reliable and reproducible coating of relevant aircraft components, even in small and medium batch sizes.
The sub-project run by the Chair of Materials and Surface Engineering focuses on the development of a robot-assisted electroplating system that covers the entire process chain for component coating. To this end, an existing plant is being expanded and modernised to incorporate larger process vessels for coating individual parts and to accommodate the use of rack-mounted components. The level of automation is being further increased in order to meet the quality requirements for aerospace components. This includes automatic bath maintenance and coating analysis. These upgrades are crucial for validating new simulation models and for gaining a better understanding of the relationships between process, microstructure and properties. The research aims to reduce resource consumption and the scrap rate, minimise the volume of waste water and contribute to a more environmentally friendly production of aircraft components.

Motivation & Objectives
The project focuses on developing copper coatings for complex hollow structures, covering the entire manufacturing process from substrate pre-treatment and electroless copper deposition (to metallise non-conductive polymer and wax substrates) to electroplating with thicker copper layers. Key challenges include achieving uniform copper coverage on complex geometries, controlling current density during electroplating, and ensuring proper electrolyte flow within hollow structures. Process parameters and electrolyte compositions are systematically optimised, and optical microscopy is used to evaluate coating quality. Laboratory-scale, 3D-printed fixtures are designed to hold the hollow parts, guide electrolyte flow and position anodes, enabling experimental testing and practical process control. The work also generates input data for COMSOL simulations to model current density distribution, supporting the design of uniform copper growth and scalable industrial processes.
The ultimate aim is to produce high-quality copper coatings on complex geometries using controlled processes that can be scaled up.

Motivation & Objectives
Lightweight construction is becoming increasingly important in many industries, as the reduced mass of moving components enables significant energy savings. Fibre-reinforced plastics offer excellent weight-to-strength ratios for this purpose, but are challenging to process and design. Whilst established processes such as hand lay-up, pre-preg autoclave or resin injection enable the production of components with near-final contours, additive manufacturing opens up new design freedoms. It allows for complex geometries and the integration of multiple components into a single, functionally integrated part. Consequently, there is growing interest in the mechanical engineering, automotive, electrical and medical technology sectors in cost-effectively manufactured hybrid components made from metal and plastic.
For such hybrid structures, a suitable surface treatment of the semi-finished metal products is crucial to ensure that plastics can be printed directly onto them using the FFF process with a permanent bond. The planned project aims to develop new coatings for 3D-shaped metal substrates for this purpose. AxynTeC is developing an advanced diamond-like carbon (DLC) technology, as well as combinations of DLC and organosilicates. Chemnitz University of Technology is formulating the organosilicate coatings and investigating the printing of plastics using the FFF process. The innovative approach lies in particular in the in situ incorporation of the organosilicate component into the DLC layer, which is novel in both technological and process terms and is intended to lay the foundations for high-performance metal-plastic hybrid components.

Motivation & Objectives
Plasma-electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is a process for producing oxide conversion layers which, amongst other things, are ideally suited as corrosion barriers and for promoting adhesion at the interface of metal-plastic composites. Industrially, PEO is carried out in an electrolyte bath. Given the high process voltages and current densities involved, it makes sense to save energy by restricting the PEO process to selected functional areas. Until now, this has only been possible through a labour-intensive masking process. In this regard, PEO using an electrolyte jet (jet-PEO) represents a promising alternative. Furthermore, components that have so far been unmanageable in the bath process can be locally coated with PEO layers. However, the targeted production of adhesion-promoting PEO coatings with a porous, undercut-rich surface is not currently possible. This project therefore aims to gain a scientific understanding of the relationships between process, microstructure and properties in Jet-PEO. Firstly, the necessary foundations for a stable jet-PEO process with the lowest possible ignition voltage and a high coating formation rate will be established through targeted electrolyte design. Based on the relationships between electrical parameters, discharge characteristics, microstructure and the morphology of the PEO layers, a finite element method (FEM) simulation model will be developed. Multiphysical FEM simulations are applied to the design of the free-jet-guided process with regard to fluid mechanics, jet geometry and electrical process control. The Jet-PEO process is used to produce point- and line-shaped oxide structures on substrate surfaces. The characterisation of the oxide structures is carried out, in particular, by electrochemical testing of media tightness using microcapillary technology, and by evaluating the surface topography using fractal algorithms.

Motivation & Objectives
Plasma-electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is an innovative process for producing ceramic protective coatings. Complex-shaped aluminium components can be qualified for applications requiring high wear and corrosion resistance, thereby ensuring that lightweight construction contributes to resource efficiency. A limiting factor for these applications is the reduction in fatigue strength often resulting from PEO, due to the brittle nature of the coating. However, as cyclic loading is present in most applications, and particularly in moving systems, it is necessary to increase the damage tolerance of the coatings and thus the service life of the coated component. Ceramic materials that meet high requirements for cyclic load-bearing capacity are generally based on zirconia, as this exhibits higher fracture toughness compared to alumina. The aim of the proposed project is therefore to improve the fatigue resistance of plasma-electrolytically oxidised aluminium substrates by forming crack-tough, damage-tolerant composite ceramic layers consisting of Al₂O₃/ZrO₂. To this end, REACH-compliant Zr-containing electrolytes are being developed to enable the production of these layers via PEO. The complex relationships between the PEO process (electrolyte composition, electrical regime and treatment time) and the composition of the composite ceramic layers (volume fraction, phase distribution of the ZrO₂ compounds) are being systematically investigated using optical emission spectroscopy and the use and further development of process diagnostics software developed in previous DFG projects, which consolidates and evaluates optical, electrical and spectral process information. In conjunction with microstructural, micro- and macro-mechanical analyses, fundamental insights can be gained into the causal relationships between the layer microstructure and the fracture mechanical properties of the layer, as well as the resulting cyclic load-bearing capacity of the system comprising the layer and the aluminium substrate. The focus is on gaining a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms by which ZrO₂ phases are incorporated into the aluminium oxide coating as a function of the PEOprocess regime, as well as an assessment of the influence of the zirconia phases on crack initiation under cyclic loading and on local crack toughness, in correlation with the coating microstructure and the damage tolerance of the composite ceramic coatings.

Motivation & Objectives
Meeting the growing demands in electroplating – namely, to deposit high-quality, homogeneous coatings even on complex-shaped workpieces – typically requires not only an in-depth understanding of the process but also extensive electrolyte and process development. To reduce these costs, numerical simulations are increasingly being used. However, state-of-the-art methods only allow for the simulation of electroplating processes under conditions of significant simplification or the use of assumed, but unsubstantiated, boundary conditions. However, modern developments in mathematical modelling, information technology and mathematical algorithms, together with ever more powerful hardware, are making it possible to progressively reduce the number of such model assumptions that limit accuracy.
The project centres on incorporating complexation and extending the formulation of electrode reactions into models of galvanic deposition. In addition to the mathematical modelling of galvanic deposition, the inverse calculation of model parameters from specially adapted experiments – such as spatially resolved titration in a flow cell to determine the electrode reactions – is also a key part of the project. The aim of the project is to extend the existing tools for simulation and parameter determination in order to model the layer formation process more precisely than before.

Motivation & Objectives
The aim of the project is to reduce the energy consumption of the diffusion welding process for nickel whilst maintaining high joint strength. The joining temperature and hold time are reduced through a knowledge-based design of defined surface layer properties on the joining surfaces. To this end, the joining surfaces are pre-conditioned by turning and diamond polishing. The resulting acceleration of diffusion reduces the required process energy, thereby enabling the joining of temperature-sensitive components. The results are integrated into a predictive model that correlates the joining parameters and the expected joint strength with the microstructure of the surface layer.

Motivation & Objectives
Alongside the increased use of battery-powered drive systems, the use of green hydrogen for fuel cells represents the drive technology of the future. Compared with battery-powered vehicles, this technology offers a significantly lighter powertrain and largely eliminates the need for materials that are available only in limited quantities and are associated with significant geopolitical dependence, such as lithium, which is costly to extract. Magnesium has proven effective for hydrogen storage at elevated pressure, as it forms magnesium hydrides which can absorb the hydrogen and release it again when required.

The main objective of the project is to improve the kinetics of hydrogen absorption and desorption by magnesium. To this end, various methods are used to specifically modify magnesium-based powder in order to increase the dislocation density and incorporate catalytically active compounds.

Motivation & Objectives
The use of cyanide as a complexing agent for the electroplating of fine gold is regarded as problematic due to the potential risks posed by the toxicity of the compounds. For users in the electroplating industry – which consists predominantly of SMEs – this entails increased technical and administrative burdens. A widespread substitution has so far failed due to the lack of suitable alternatives. The project is working on the development of suitable alternatives. The gold layers produced form the basis for the manufacture of safe bond and solder joints for connection technology. Despite their widespread use in this sector, cyanide-based electrolytes present not only a potential risk to the environment and company staff but also drawbacks regarding compatibility with various resists used to pattern surfaces. This results in an increased risk of ‘underplating’.
The project aims to synthesise new gold complexes and use them as starting compounds for electroplating gold. The feasibility of this approach has already been demonstrated using a new di-thiourea-MSA-gold(I) complex as an example. Based on the gold complexes produced, the aim is to develop a cyanide-free gold electrolyte with high resist compatibility. In addition to the development of the process bath, wastewater treatment and the necessary analytical methods will also be taken into account in close consultation with the participating SMEs.

Motivation & Objectives
Plasma-electrolytic oxidation (PEO) offers great potential for the corrosion protection of high-strength steels, whilst also providing excellent bonding of polymer matrices in modern composite materials for lightweight construction. However, the necessary fundamental knowledge is currently lacking. This project aims to investigate the fundamental mechanisms of passivation and film formation in order to enable the targeted passivation and surface structuring of steels via PEO. For the anodic passivation of unalloyed and low-alloy steels and to achieve the ignition voltage, the addition of passivators (silicates, aluminates) to the electrolyte is required. Therefore, the passivation and ignition behaviour will first be investigated using potential-controlled ramp tests. The passivators also play a decisive role in determining the chemical composition of the PEO layer. Using an instrumented test setup, the influence of the current regime on the distribution and intensity of the spark discharges and the resulting layer microstructure is determined. In addition, optical and electrical process parameters are used as termination criteria following the formation of a comparatively thin, porous PEO layer. Furthermore, as part of the research project, effective, pronounced undercuts are created on the metal side to achieve a load-bearing, form-fit metal–plastic bond. This process step takes place prior to the PEO deposition in the same bath and utilises anodic metal dissolution below the passivation potential. The application-relevant properties of the PEO layer adhesion, the metal-plastic composite adhesion and the corrosion behaviour are characterised as a function of the layer microstructure and surface topography using mechanical and electrochemical methods.

Motivation & Objectives
Magnesium is the lightest metallic structural material and therefore offers enormous potential for weight savings in mobile systems. Furthermore, Mg is highly recyclable. Excellent casting properties, combined with good damping capabilities against electromagnetic and mechanical vibrations, make magnesium materials ideal for the construction of machine housings, as well as for frames and casings for sensitive sensory, optical and consumer electronics devices.
Despite these positive processing and application properties, the range of applications for Mg alloys is currently limited by their low resistance to corrosive and tribological stresses. Plasma-electrolytic oxidation is a promising, environmentally friendly surface treatment process designed to address this technical challenge. In a previous DFG project (LA 1274/34-1), the targeted incorporation of electrolyte components into the resulting PEO layer had already been achieved. It was demonstrated that, by using highly concentrated electrolytes, very hard, chemically stable mixed-oxide layers (whose chemical composition is dominated not by substrate but by electrolyte components) can be produced on Mg surfaces, the hardness of which significantly exceeds that of MgO layers. However, the defect-laden morphology of such coatings has a negative effect on the resulting corrosion and wear resistance. However, given the current state of the art and the lack of a comprehensive process model, characterisation of the complex coating formation processes and the interactions between chemical and electrical process parameters during the plasma-electrolytic coating process is only possible empirically. The aim of the project is therefore to investigate the interaction mechanisms of the chemical and electrical processes during the PEO of Mg with mixed oxide formation.
