“…8 A promising application of these alloys is as an alternative material for hard Cr plating. Studies regarding the electrodeposition of binary alloys, such as Ni-Mo, 9,10 Ni-W, 11,12 Co-W, 13 and Fe-W, 14 and ternary alloys, such as Ni-W-P, 15 Ni-Fe-W, 16,17 and Fe-W-Zn, 18,19 have been widely conducted for the replacement of hard Cr plating based on its high hardness, wear resistance, heat resistance, and corrosion resistance of these alloys. Compared to Mo-based alloys, W-based alloys have been more widely studied owing to the superior properties of W compared to those of Mo (higher melting point, heat resistance, and mechanical strength) and the difference in the reduction mechanism of metallic Mo and W during the induced co-deposition process.…”
