Abstract
In this paper, decorative chromium coatings are discussed. The properties of different types of nickel coatings (bright and semi-bright) and discussed, pointing out their characteristics, their uses and their corrosion resistance performance. The goal of the use of multi-layer coatings, nickel/chromium and copper/nickel /chromium, are discussed in details. The protection mechanisms of duplex and triplex nickel coatings are also discussed. Finally, the decorative chromium coating specifications for the different conditions of service are presented.
