Abstract

Two coatings developed using a pulse reverse current electrodeposition method were extensively characterized. Significant differences in topography, hardness, composition, corrosion, and tribological performance were observed. The first coating was found to be randomly oriented and harder, with lower surface roughness and higher W content. The second coating was textured and softer, with higher surface roughness and lower W content. Overall, the first coating was found to exhibit both high corrosion and wear resistance suitable for bearing and powertrain applications.
