Abstract
Electrodeposition process coupled with ultrasonic vibration (sonoelectrodeposition) was used to deposit nanosized copper powder from acidic solution of copper sulphate. Thecathodic current density and the amplitude of vibration used are 37.5 mA/cm2 and 35% from the maximum capacity of vibration respectively. Purity, morphology and size of the nanosized powder were studied. The XRD studies also reported.The copper powderhas a high purity with mean size of particles about 52 nanometer. XRD analysis confirms that the crystals, sizes are in nanosized range.
