Abstract

The plating of stainless steel, or more correctly, the plating of iron chromium alloys is among the recent projects undertaken by the steel industry to improve its products. Publications on this industrial endeavor are few, although undoubtedly there is considerable work going on. The reason for the sudden interest in stainless steel may be traced to the interesting and valuable properties of chromium steels and especially the stainless steels. However, articles made entirely of stainless steel are expensive and therefore cheaper substitutes have been considered, names the plating of a base metal with chrom-iron alloys. This project will be of great commercial value if sufficiently perfected for production. The purpose of the investigation below it is to establish the best conditions for the plating of the chromium and iron alloy.
