Steel containing carbon of 02% was coated with Ni and Cr through electrodeposition, and subsequently annealed at 400 and 600 ℃ for 5 min, 30 min, 1 h and 2 h. During annealing at 400 ℃, the formation and growth of oxides occurred in the form of petals along with voids, cracks and porosities. However, at 600 ℃, the nucleation and growth of chromium oxide whiskers produced a surface almost free from crack, porosity and void for 1 h and 2 h of holding. In accordance with the surface morphology, the bare steel, as-deposited steel, all specimens deposited and annealed at 400 ℃, and specimens deposited and annealed at 600 ℃ for 5 and 30 min exhibited continuous corrosion in 3% of NaCl solution. However, the specimens deposited and annealed at 600 ℃ for 1 and 2 h exhibited an improved corrosion resistance in 3% of NaCl solution with high pitting potential due to presence of a dense passive oxide film almost free from voids at the surface.
