Hard coatings based on chromium carbides and chromium borides are widely used in applications that require mechanical performance, i.e., high hardness and low friction coefficient and good corrosion resistance. In this work, we made layers of chromium carbides and chromium borides on the surface of low carbon steel through some specific treatments. For chromium carbides, the cementation in a solid medium followed by electroplating of chromium on the surface and finally the application of annealing treatment at temperatures between 500 and 1100 °C for 1 hour. For chromium borides, the boriding treatment in solid medium at 900 °C for 4 hours followed by chromium electroplating on the steel surface and finally the application of annealing treatment at temperatures at 950 °C for 1 and 2 hours. The obtained results show that, in the first case, the cemented layer and the chromium deposited on the surface combine to form chromium carbides on the treated surface after annealing. Similarly, for the second case, boron diffusion and chromium deposition lead to chromium borides on the treated surface. The characteristics of the chromium carbides and chromium borides obtained are very similar to those of chromium carbides and chromium borides obtained by other processes.
