  2. Galvanization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanization

    Galvanized surface with visible spangle Galvanization ( also spelled galvanisation ) [ 1 ] is the process of applying a protective zinc coating to steel or iron , to prevent rusting . The most common method is hot-dip galvanizing , in which the parts are coated by submerging them in a bath of hot, molten zinc.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mon_Valley_Works–Irvin_Plant

    The plant has an annual capacity of 2.9 million net tons of steel from an 80″ hot strip mill, 64″ and 84″ Pickle lines, 84″ five-stand cold reduction mill, continuous annealing line, batch and open-coil annealing facilities, 84″ temper mill, 52″ hot-dip galvanizing line and a 48″ hot-dip galvanizing line, as well as the #11 Shear ...

  4. Hot-dip galvanization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-dip_galvanization

    Galvanised hand rail Crystalline surface of a hot-dip galvanized handrail, known as "spangle" Protective effect: completely rusted letter box mounted to a hot-dip galvanized wall Steel strip coming out of the zinc pot of a continuous vertical hot-dip galvanizing line. Hot-dip galvanization is a form of galvanization.

  5. Galvannealed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvannealed

    Production of galvannealed sheet steel begins with hot dip galvanization of sheet steel. After passing through the galvanizing zinc bath the sheet steel passes through air knives to remove excess zinc, and is then heated in an annealing furnace for several seconds causing iron and zinc layers to diffuse into one another causing the formation of zinc-iron alloy layers at the surface.

  6. Sherardising - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherardising

    Sherardising is a process of galvanization of ferrous metal surfaces, also called vapour galvanising and dry galvanizing. The process is named after British metallurgist Sherard Osborn Cowper-Coles (son of naval inventor Cowper Phipps Coles ) who invented and patented the method c. 1900.

  7. Electrogalvanization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrogalvanization

    Electrogalvanizing is a process in which a layer of zinc is bonded to steel to protect against corrosion, enhance adhesion, or give an aesthetic appeal.The process involves electroplating, running a current of electricity through a saline-/zinc-based electrolytic solution with a zinc anode and steel cathode.

    Hecla Mining's Greens Creek mine located 17 mi (27 km) south-southwest of Juneau, Alaska, on Admiralty Island, opened in August 1989. The mine produces silver, gold, zinc and lead from a structurally and mineralogically complex VMS deposit. In 2019 it produced 56,805 tonnes of zinc in concentrate as a byproduct of silver-gold mining.

  9. Sendzimir process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sendzimir_process

    Galvanized surface. Sendzimir process (named after Tadeusz Sendzimir) is used to galvanize a steel strip by using a small amount of aluminum in the zinc bath and producing a coating with essentially no iron-zinc alloy. The process guarantees high resistance and durability characteristics.
