Metallurgical interactions and zinc pick-up mechanism during hot dip galvanizing.

M. Tech. Metalurgical Engineering. / A research project was launched to produce zinc/ nickel, zinc/ tin and zinc/aluminium alloys at different concentrations and to test zinc pick-up with the typical steels used in South Africa. Results show that the addition of 0.023% Al and 0.06% Ni in the zinc bath can be successfully used to reduce the zinc pick up of commercial grades of steel. Tin improved quality of coating as compared to pure zinc.
