Abstract

An analysis was made of the use of three main metals such as copper, chromium and nickel, which are applied as a deposition process for the protection of steel in the presence of aggressive environments in the metalworking industry located in Mexicali and that manufactures products of steel. Even with the application of the methods of copper, chromium and nickel, in the manufacturing processes the process of corrosion was presented to a lesser degree. The analysis was carried out in 2013 in the company indicated where the main factors of the corrosion generation were the humidity and temperature as climatic variables, coupled with the levels of sulfur dioxide (SO2) as an environmental parameter. In addition, the functionality of the protection in products with steels was evaluated to avoid the corrosion generation with scanning electron microscopy (MBE) analysis.
