Abstract
Deposition of amorphous alloys of (W, Co, B) is accompanied by anodic decomposition of ammonium citrate (pH 8.5) electrolyte. Products of decomposition include amines and nitro-organic compounds. Also some nitrite, and probably nitrate, is found in solutions electrolyzed for a long time. The anodic decomposition processes are catalyzed by cobalt.
