ABSTRACT:
Electroless nickel baths for producing high hardness nickel alloys "as-deposited" containing phosphorus which are produced using baths employing hypophosphite reducing agents at a particular pH range advantageously above 6 and in the presence of a fluoborate anion. The nickel phosphorus alloys "as-deposited" do not require age or heat treatments to produce high hardness with Vickers Harness Number values above about 700 and generally above about 800 to 900 (VHN.sub.100) and have phosphorus contents below about 4 weight percent and a crystalline nature with crystallite diameters in excess of 60 Angstroms.
