Abstract:
Requirements for improved durability in domestic consumer goods have invariably
led to the application of more corrosion resistant materials. The basic material
used by many industries, including automotive, ventilation and heating,
construction, appliances, and furniture is sheet steel. Zinc-coated or
galvanized sheet steels are the obvious corrosion resistant material choice for
these industries. Steel sheet can be coated with zinc (galvanized) through
either electrolytic or hot-dip processes, with coating weight between 30 g/m 2
and 400 g/m 2 (approximately 4 à µm to 55 à µm thick) depending on the process
condition
