Homogeneous, crystallized and crack-free chromium (Cr) coating was electrodeposited on stainless steel at 85 oC with a current density of 80 A/dm2, evidenced by the surface and cross section metallographs of the coating. X-ray diffraction analyses indicate the coating is largely composed of body centred cubic -Cr. The effect of temperature on the generation of cracks, surface hardness and cathodic current efficiency were also investigated. The reduction in crack density with increasing temperature may be interpreted in terms of the decreasing inhibition of lateral grain growth..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
