In order to study the effects of pulse parameters on jet electrodeposition, Ni–Co–BN (h) nanocomposite coatings were prepared on the surface of steel C1045. The samples were analyzed and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM), microhardness tester, and electrochemical workstation. The experimental results showed that the contents of Co and BN (h) nanoparticles in the coatings changed with the variation of pulse parameters. When the pulse frequency was 4 kHz and the duty cycle was 0.7, their contents reached maxima of 27.34 wt % and 3.82 wt %, respectively. The XRD patterns of the coatings showed that the deposits had a face-centered cube (fcc) structure, and there was an obvious preferred orientation in (111) plane. With the increase in pulse parameters, the surface roughness of the coatings first decreased and then increased, with the minimum value obtained being 0.664 µm. The microhardness of the coatings first increased and then decreased with increase in pulse parameters. The maximum value of the microhardness reached 719.2 HV0.05 when the pulse frequency was 4 kHz and the duty cycle was 0.7. In the electrochemical test, the potentiodynamic polarization curves of the coatings after immersion in 3.5 wt % NaCl solution showed the pulse parameters had an obvious effect on the corrosion resistance of the Ni–Co–BN (h) nanocamposite coatings. The corrosion current density and polarization resistance indicated that the coatings had better corrosion resistance when the pulse frequency was 4 kHz and duty cycle was 0.7.
