The book "Nickel-ceramic composite membrane fabrication by electroless plating" is a comprehensive scientific work that focuses on the production of ceramic membranes through chemical deposition without electrical current. Written by Vijaya Kumar Bulasara, it is based on the author's dissertation at the Indian Institute of Technology in Guwahati, under the supervision of Dr. Ramgopal Uppaluri. The publication addresses the preparation of ceramic membrane supports as well as the electroless deposition of nickel on ceramic substrates. Additionally, various techniques to enhance mass transfer, such as bath agitation, membrane rotation, ultrasonic treatment, and hydrothermal methods, are described in detail. The use of sodium hypophosphite and hydrazine as reducing agents is also discussed, analyzing the effects of nickel concentration, solution charge, and the choice of reducing agent on the efficiency and properties of the nickel coating.
