We have studied the conditions under which metastable phases are forme
d during the electrodeposition of metals and alloys. It has been prove
d that the major causes of metastable phase formation during the elect
rolyses of aqueous solutions are high dispersion and defectiveness of
electrodeposits and the inclusion of nonmetallic impurities in the ele
ctrodeposits. A mechanism for the formation of supersaturated solid so
lution and of amorphous phases in the process of electrodeposition of
binary alloys has been suggested.
