Abstract
Amorphous and nanocrystalline chromium-carbon coatings have higher properti es than standard galvanic chromium ones. However, data on these coatings an d their heat-treatment regimes are quite scarce. The present paper concerns the structure, microhardness, ductility, adhesion strength, and resistance to overall and pitting corrosion of amorphous chromium-carbon coatings dep osited galvanically by various regimes in an electrolyte based on chromic a nhydride with an additive of formic acid.
