ZnMn alloys were deposited from acidic chloride baths.
The presence of NH4SCN and 4-HB additives increases the Mn content.
An outstanding smooth surface was obtained in presence of additives.
A fiber texture along the 〈110〉direction appears for ZnMn alloys.
ZnMn deposit with 17% Mn content shows higher corrosion resistance than pure Zn.
