Abstract
This article presents a review of international scientific and technical literature on galvanic protective coatings used at temperatures up to 600 °C. According to the review, over 60 % of the research is devoted to the production of composite coatings based on nickel and its alloys. The most common alloying systems for composite electrolytic coatings based on nickel are identified. It is noted that the production of nickel-cobalt composites by electrodeposition is a promising approach, but it is primarily limited to laboratory experiments, and scaling up for industrial mass production remains a significant obstacle.
