Galvanizing ‘As Easy as A123

Galvanizing ‘As Easy as A123
Available for download

The first written record of galvanizing describes how a French chemist named Melouin presented a method of coating iron by immersing it in molten zinc to the French Royal Academy in 1742. Sorel, another French chemist patented a process for coating iron with zinc after preparing it with 9% sulfuric acid followed by fluxing with ammonium chloride. Great Britain granted a patent for a similar process in 1837. By 1850, galvanizing had become a generally accepted practice for the protection of iron and steel with 10,000 tons of zinc per year used for the protection steel.

Fluoro-Urethanes Coatings with Extreme Exterior Durability

Product Number: 41207-314-SG
Author: Liza Capino
Publication Date: 2007
$20.00

Performance properties of solvent-based urethane topcoats formulated with fluorinated polymers are reviewed. Fluoro-urethanes offer outstanding gloss and color retention, good chemical resistance, and excellent adhesion. The long coating service life of fluoro-urethanes reduces the frequency of maintenance work and subsequent downtime interruption.

Painting Over Hot Dip Galvanized Steel

Product Number: 41207-348-SG
Author: Thomas J. Langill
Publication Date: 2007
$20.00

Duplex systems, also known as painting over hot dip galvanized steel, are extremely effective corrosion protection systems. However, careful surface preparation techniques need to be used to alleviate potential coating failures. The age and characteristics of the galvanized coating should be used to determine what type of surface preparation is needed.

Inspecting Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel

Product Number: 41216-960-SG
Author: Bernardo Duran
Publication Date: 2016
$20.00

Engineers, architects, DOTs, and other specifiers use hot dip galvanizing to provide corrosion protection to steel and iron in many industries, including transportation and highway, parking garages, bridges, structural, agricultural, petrochemical, and original equipment manufacturing. To ensure continued corrosion protection and structural integrity in these industries, it is necessary to properly inspect the galvanizing.
