The electrodeposition process of Zn-Cr alloy coatings under the conditions of direct and pulsed current is discussed. The Cr content in the obtained alloy coatings, the current efficiency of the process, surface morphology, structure and wettability as a function of deposition parameters, such as current density, were determined. The Zn-Cr alloy coatings of good quality contained up to 20 wt.% Cr (for direct current) and up to 9 wt.% Cr (for pulse current). All the obtained coatings had a structure typical of zinc coatings (h.c.p.) and had a hydrophobic character. The morphology of the coatings changed significantly under the influence of changes in deposition conditions.
