Summary:Nowadays, application of nanocrystalline nickel-tungsten (Ni-W) alloys is receiving a great interest because they are an efficient replacement for hard chromium coatings owing to their premium hardness, wear, and corrosion properties. Moreover, heat-treated nanocrystalline Ni-W alloys demonstrate proper mechanical properties as well as thermal stability at high temperatures. The current paper reviews different aspects of electrodeposition, microstructure, corrosion, oxidation, wear, and mechanical properties Ni-W alloys and nano/micro composites. Besides, heat treatment effects on properties and thermal stability of these alloys are also reviewed. •Systematic overview of electrodeposition of Ni-W alloys•Effective parameters through plating techniques in Ni-W electrodeposition•Oxidation, corrosion, magnetic and mechanical properties of Ni-W films•Heat treatment and thermal stability of Ni-W amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys•Modern aspects in fabrication and electrodeposition of Ni-W alloys
