In the study, the electrodeposition mechanism of Ni–Mo alloy was investigated. Potentiostatic deposition showed that the presence of MoO42− could reduce the deposition overpotential of Ni, and the deposition current efficiency of Ni–Mo alloy was lower than pure Ni deposition as the potential moved n...
