Abstract
We present the results of experimental studies focused on the effect of carbon nanotube additives on properties of galvanically deposited chromium-based coatings. The additives were introduced to the electrolyte by electrochemical treatment of the electrolyte and ultrasonic dispersion. The concentration of additives introduced to the electrolyte was 0.1 g/L. The results of coating testing showed enhanced hardness and corrosion- and wear resistance.
