Abstract

Bioethanol has abundant raw material availability in Indonesia; The disadvantage of bioethanol is that it is hygroscopic so it can cause corrosion. The electroplating method with nickel and chrome plating can make the material corrosion-resistant. The electroplating results were tested for hardness, it was found that the hardness value increased because Ni-Cr ions were successfully deposited. Based on the SEM-EDS test results, it is known that the electroplating process went well, the surface of the material was coated with Ni-Cr elements, where 43.0% of the chrome element was deposited, 17.7% of the nickel element, and other elements, based on the test results, the surface was evenly coated and well, so that the test material does not come into direct contact with the environment, which causes the test material to become passive and protected from corrosion. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.
