The effect of operating conditions during plating on the electrochemical behavior and morphology of trivalent solution-derived chromium coatings
O.J Suarez, J.J Olaya and S. Rodi
-
Differences in morphology were observed, mainly depending on plating bath pH; a crack pattern was observed in high pH conditions.
Difference in chromium coatings thickness was mainly due to chromium solution concentration.
High chromium concentration in solution led to obtaining coatings having good corrosion resistance in a wide window of pH and temperature conditions.
