Micrometer and nanometer La₂O₃ particles were codeposited with nickel by electroplating from a nickel sulfamate bath. The wear behaviors of the composite coatings were evaluated sliding against AISI 1045 steel under non-lubricated conditions. It was found that the incorporation of the La₂O₃ particle...
