Abstract
Peptone addition in small amounts increased the current efficiencies o f tin and tin-zinc alloy depositions on steel from gluconate bath. Inc rease of peptone concentration decreased the tin content and increased the zinc content in the Sn-Zn alloy deposit. Cyclic voltammetric stud ies revealed that peptone stabilized the monovalent tin. The discharge of zinc gluconate complex was favoured by peptone which caused higher zinc content in the alloy deposit.
