Abstract Ni Co alloy electrodeposits have been widely employed in industry due to their good corrosion and wear resistance, high mechanical strength, moderate thermal conductivity and outstanding electrocatalytic and magnetic properties. This review aims to provide an insight into the mechanism of electrodeposition and effect of operational parameters and deposit microstructure, together with the mechanical, electrochemical and tribological characteristics of Ni Co alloys and included particle, composite deposits. Potential applications of the coatings have also been considered in applications as diverse as additive manufacturing, micro-tools, micro-sensors, electronic imaging and electrochemical energy conversion.
