Solid solution strengthening by carbon and sulfur in bulk nanocrystalline Ni was studied by electrodeposition and first-principles calculations. Bulk nanocrystalline Ni with a carbon content of 30–1600 ppm and a sulfur content of 140–1200 ppm was prepared using a sulfamate bath with different complexing agents and gloss agents. The hardness values of the bulk nanocrystalline Ni were scattered as the grain size decreased to ∼12 nm with increasing carbon and sulfur content. It was found that the scatter could be explained by considering the effect of impurities such as solute atoms on the hardness of electrodeposited Ni, in addition to the Hall–Petch relationship. Thus, to determine the structure of Ni–C and Ni–S solid solutions and estimate the contribution of impurities to hardness, the enthalpy of solution and misfit strain were calculated by first-principles calculations. The results indicate that carbon exists as an interstitial solute atom in the Ni matrix, producing large misfit strains, and sulfur exists as a substitutional solute atom, inducing no significant changes. A model of solid solution strengthening due to interstitial solute atoms was developed by considering the interaction between mobile dislocations and solute atoms. This study has effectively divided the observed solid solution effect from the grain refinement effect in electrodeposited nanocrystalline Ni. The results of this study point to the origin of high-strength electrodeposited bulk nanocrystalline Ni.
