Weight loss was conducted on the electrodeposited mild steel and it was inspected. The anti corrosion properties were assessed by linear polarization procedure in 1 mole of HCl medium. From the results gotten, all deposited coatings displayed significant improvement. An amazing improvement was accomplished in every one of the coatings as against the as-received sample. Zn-MgO-ZrO2 (0.8V) with the best performing coating showing an upgrade indicates enhanced anti-wear and friction qualities displaying wear resistance improvement.} }
