ASTM A653 G60 G90 Hot Dipped Galvanised Coil Q235 Metal Steel
Electrogalvanizing is an electroplating technique used to place a layer of zinc metal on top of a steel surface.
It involves immersing a steel component into a solution containing zinc salts followed by the application of electricity
to induce an electrochemical reaction on top of the steel.
Compared to hot dip galvanization, electrogalvanizing provides a thinner coating and more aesthetic appearances.
Bare steel surfaces are prone to corrosion because they contain iron that oxidizes when exposed to oxygen.
Zinc, being more anodic than iron, becomes a sacrificial anode and prevents corrosion of the underlying steel.
Steel sheets and wires are often electrogalvanized.
Common application of the technique occurs in the automotive and appliance industries.
