Tanks or containers after hot-dip galvanizing

What is hot dip galvanizing?
Over time, corrosion metal products covered under the influence of the environment, leading to the destruction of the metal. Before producers raised the question of protection of metal from corrosion and destruction.
One of the leading options for protecting construction steel, hot dip galvanizing, which is well protected steel and metal construction from water, soil and atmospheric corrosion. Because of their unique properties zinc gained popularity in the use of its production, and its main advantage was the reuse without losing their chemical and physical properties.
The process begins with galvanizing zinc melt at a temperature of 440-460 ° C, after metal product immersed in the molten mass, thus covering the surface of the steel on the outside as well as inside the thickness of 60 — 100 microns.
Hot-dip galvanizing provides not only a protective barrier and Tacoma electrochemical protection that provides double protection design even if damaged shell of zinc leads to corrosion of zinc, rather than steel.
Thus, hot galvanizing combines properties that protect the products from corrosion for many years (approximately 20 to 65 years depending on coating thickness and environmental conditions). May 9, 2017 at 08:00PM
