"Overview table of plating and its properties"

Q. Does anyone know if there is a book or website covering "all plating" with layer properties?
I know that there is a difference between different processes. Without a more comprehensive one I know that there are lots of good tables over different plating, but if there is something more collected ...?

Electroless and electrolytic
both the common metals and alloys as well
precious metal and precious metal processes
preferably in table form
COMPOSITION
STRUCTURE
INTERNAL STRESS
FINAL MELTING POINT
DENSITY
COEFFICIENT OF THERMAL EXPANSION
ELECTRICAL RESISTIVITY
THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY
SPECIFIC HEAT
MAGNETIC COERCIVITY
TENSILE STRENGTH
DUCTILITY
MODULUS OF ELASTICITY
Hardness
Hardness heat
COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION
TABER WEAR
TABER WEAR heat
Corrosion and other properties as Solderability, Weldability, etc.

A. Hi Fredrik. That's a tall order, and the closest I know of -- although still falling quite short of what you'd like -- is Safranek's "The Properties of Electrodeposited Metals and Alloys".
