The nature of the galvanizing process ensures that the metallic zinc coating has excellent adhesion, abrasion, and corrosion resistance. Galvanized coatings will not degrade (crack, blister, and peel) as with other barrier coatings such as paint. However, zinc is a reactive material and will corrode and erode slowly. For this reason, the protection offered by a galvanized coating is proportional to its thickness and to the corrosion rate. It is therefore important to understand zinc&#8217;s corrosion mechanism and what factors affect the rate.\n<h4>Related Studies<\/h4>\n<hr class=\"style-five margin-t10 margin-b20 \"  data-rt-animate=\"animate\" data-rt-animation-type=\"fadeInDown\" data-rt-animation-group=\"single\" >\n\n<div class=\"row clearfix\">\n\n<div class=\"box four \">\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/galvinfo-logo.jpg\" alt=\"galvinfo-logo\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4385\">\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"box three-four \">\n<h4>How Zinc Protects Steel<\/h4>\n<h5>The GalvInfo Center<\/h5>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.galvinfo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.galvinfo.com<\/a>\n\nSteel sheet is a very versatile product.

The steel sheet is passed as a continuous ribbon through a bath of molten metal at speeds up to 600 feet per minute. In the molten metal bath, the steel strip reacts (alloys) with the molten metal to bond the coating onto the strip surface. As the strip emerges from the molten bath, it drags out excess liquid metal, much like when an object is pulled rapidly from a container of water. Using a gas-wiping process, a controlled thickness of coating, usually expressed as weight (mass) of coating per unit area, is allowed to remain on the strip surface.\n<h4>Related Studies<\/h4>\n<hr class=\"style-five margin-t10 margin-b20 \"  data-rt-animate=\"animate\" data-rt-animation-type=\"fadeInDown\" data-rt-animation-group=\"single\" >\n\n<div class=\"row clearfix\">\n\n<div class=\"box four \">\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/galvinfo-logo.jpg\" alt=\"galvinfo-logo\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4385\">\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"box three-four \">\n<h4>The Continuous Hot-Dip Coating Process for Steel Sheet Products<\/h4>\n<h5>The GalvInfo Center<\/h5>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.galvinfo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.galvinfo.com<\/a>\n\nThe continuous hot-dip coating process for steel-sheet products is widely used and employed in all corners of the globe today.

Using the correctly specified grade of zinc, continuous galvanizing grade (CGG) alloy, or master alloy is key to producing a galvanized product that meets the requirements of the market place. Close control of the amount of aluminum in the zinc is critical to achieving good adhesion to the steel substrate. To accomplish this, the galvanizer must be able to depend on a supply of raw zinc ingots that meet specific composition limits. This is accomplished through a series of ASTM standards that cover zinc products. GalvInfoNote 5.2 at the GalvInfo Center (see link below) reviews the zinc grades available for continuous hot-dip galvanizing and the ASTM documents that govern them.\n<h4>Related Studies<\/h4>\n<hr class=\"style-five margin-t10 margin-b20 \"  data-rt-animate=\"animate\" data-rt-animation-type=\"fadeInDown\" data-rt-animation-group=\"single\" >\n\n<div class=\"row clearfix\">\n\n<div class=\"box four \">\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/galvinfo-logo.jpg\" alt=\"galvinfo-logo\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4385\">\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"box three-four \">\n<h4>Zinc Grades Used for Continuous Hot-Dip Galvanizing<\/h4>\n<h5>The GalvInfo Center<\/h5>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.galvinfo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.galvinfo.com<\/a>\n\nZinc plays a crucial role in continuous hot-dip galvanizing.
