“…From electrochemical impedance spectroscopy study in 3.5% NaCl solution, the best corrosion resistance is seen for a coating bath composition having 30 g/L nickel sulphate, 17 g/L sodium hypophosphite, 25 g/L sodium tungstate and an annealing temperature of 600 °C [42]. Optimum deposition of tungsten and phosphorus content of the coatings using orthogonal arrays by considering plating bath parameters such as concentration of sodium hypophosphite, sodium citrate, bath temperature, pH and stabilizer has been reported by Shu et al [43]. From an extensive review of literature, it seems that the research concerning electroless Ni-P-W coating is mainly directed towards the investigation of surface morphology, microstructure, corrosion resistance, microhardness, wear resistance and friction behavior.…”
