Structural investigations of electrodeposited binary and ternary iron-based alloys containing chromium and nickel are accomplished by the methods of scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometry. Joint effect of the alloying elements on the surface morphology and preferred crystal orientations in Fe—Cr—Ni alloys’ coatings electrodeposited from sulphate electrolyte on steel substrate is shown and explained. The surface morphology of the investigated Fe—Cr—Ni alloys with b.c.c. crystal structure is represented solely by spherulites and is accompanied by prevalence of <111> crystal orientation in contrast to electrodeposited iron where regular fine crystal structure is characterized by preferred <211> crystal orientation.
Key words: surface morphology, preferred orientations, Fe—Cr—Ni coatings, electrodeposited alloys, electrodeposited iron.
