总结了锡及其电沉积的重要性，并概述了镀锡的范围。电镀锡的成熟应用包括防腐蚀、电子制造和炊具。过去 20 年来，镀锡科学和技术取得了长足的发展，包括对纳米结构沉积物的研究、采用环保的甲磺酸浴以及更雄心勃勃的涂层（包括多层和复合材料）。更新的电解液、脉冲电镀和电解液添加剂提高了我们定制沉积物结构和成分的能力。锡应用的多样性已扩展到使用更新结构（例如复合材料、多层和纳米结构）、电气控制（例如脉冲电流）和相对浴/电极运动（包括使用旋转电极）的锂电池。作者实验室的数据说明了现代锡沉积的电化学方面，该数据强调了甲磺酸电解质的多功能性。通过使用合适的添加剂以及控制电极/电解质的移动和操作条件，可以实现各种沉积形态、颜色和表面光洁度。确定了需要进一步研究工作的主题领域。
The importance of tin and its electrodeposition are summarised and the scope for plating tin is outlined. Established applications of electroplated tin include corrosion protection, electronics fabrication and cooking utensils. The past 20 years have seen developments in the science and technology of tin plating, including research into nanostructured deposits, adoption of environmentally friendly methanesulfonic acid baths and more ambitious coatings including multi-layers and composites. Our ability to tailor deposit structure and composition has been improved by newer electrolytes, pulse plating and electrolyte additives. The diversity of tin applications has extended to lithium batteries using newer structures (such as composites, multi-layers and nanostructures), electrical control (e.g., pulsed current) and relative bath/electrode movement (including the use of rotating electrodes). Electrochemical aspects of modern tin deposition are illustrated by data from the authors' laboratory which highlights the versatility of methanesulfonic acid electrolytes. A wide range of deposit morphology, colour and surface finish are possible by the use of suitable addition agents and control of electrode/electrolyte movement and operating conditions. Subject areas needing further research work are identified.
