Production Process and Technology Development of Hot-Dip Galvanizing

Abstract

Development process of Hot-dip galvanizing technology and characteristics of different production methods were reviewed in this paper. Presently, the UEC method was utilized widely because of its advantages like high output, high quality, energy saving, lower consumption and low products cost. To improved the corrosion resistance of the coating and declining the cost of hot-dip galvanizing, hot-dip galvanizing alloyed coating has been developed. Although the general hot-dip galvanizing has been developed rapidly in China, we should make great efforts to research deeply and improve the hot-dip galvanizing technology, especilly in the areas such as zinc alloy plating and the corresponding hot-dip galvanizing technology.
