abstract = "Activated carbon particles (ACPs) were obtained
from biomass (hazelnut shells - HZs). Prepared HZs materials
were carbonized in the furnace at 600° C for 1h, and activated in
CO2 (850 °C, 2h). The microstructural properties of carbons were
tested using the Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy
(FE-SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) equation methods.
After shredding, and sifting processes, inert micro-sized particles
were used as bio-reinforcement in electrochemically co-deposited
copper coatings. The sulfate electrolytes without/with carbon
particles (1.0 wt. %) were used for deposition/co-electrodeposition
of 10 micrometers-thick Cu or Cu/C coatings on brass cathodes
using the pulse current regime (PC). The structural, mechanical,
and wettability properties of Cu and Cu/C metal matrix coatings
with variations in amplitude current densities in the range of 30-
100 mA·cm-2 were investigated. An improvement in microhardness
was observed for all Cu/C composites compared to pure Cu
coatings. The wettability resistances of coatings were investigated
using the sessile drop method, and the obtained results are
correlated with the microstructures. The better results were
obtained at a higher current density for the Cu/C coating.",
