Zinc Chromate Plated Steel Friction Coefficient

I am working on a project in which I need the coefficient of friction between 2 flat plates of zinc-yellow chromate plated C-1010 steel. I am having trouble locating this information. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi David. I don't know what particular book would have this data, but I'd be pretty sure that whatever the name of the book, it is available from ASM International [Metals Park, OH]. But I hope you're not designing something where zinc plated steel rubs against zinc plated steel
