Conclusions
-
1.
Low-melting electrodeposits of Cd or Cd and Zn reduce considerably the ductile properties of the various constructional steels at temperatures above 200°C. The effect of a zinc coating was considerably weaker under these conditions. The coatings did not affect the impact toughness of the material.
-
2.
The sensitivity of steel to the action of coatings is little affected by steel properties as determined by the tempering temperature during heat treatment.
-
3.
Steel D (18-9 Ti) is sensitive only to composite Zn−Cd coating.
