Abstract
The hybrid effect of Al and Cr in zinc bath on galvanizing coatings were studied by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscope (EDS), coupled with hot-dip galvanizing experiments. A new phase T1 was found in the coating, and the ζ phase was absent when hot-dip galvanizing at 480 °C. When Cr added zinc bath were alloyed with 0.1 wt.% Al, coating was composed of δ, ζ, η and T1 phases; when Cr added zinc bath were alloyed with 0.2 wt.% Al, δ phase layer became thinner, ζ changed from even layer to blocky crystals, and diffuse-Δ coexisted with the ζ phase. The morphology evolution of galvanizing coating was analyzed and the hybrid effect of Al and Cr were discussed with diffusion path theory.
