Abstract:
The microstructure, surface quality, and thermal shielding properties of the coatings prepared by the methods of magnetron sputtering and electroplating are studied. The results show that the $\mathrm{Cr}$–$\mathrm{Ag}$ coating prepared by means of magnetron sputtering is smoother, its porosity and emissivity are lower, and the hardness is higher than that of the coating prepared by means of electroplating.
