Effect of Bismuth on the Microstructure and Corrosion Resistance of Galvanized Coating

Article Preview

Abstract:

The microstructure of the galvanized coating was investigated using scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscope. The immersing and electrochemical corrosion tests were carried out to study the corrosion resistance of the galvanized coating. The addition of Bi in Zn-bath affects remarkably the morphology of the galvanized coating. The thickness of δ + ζ phase layer in the coating reaches the maximum when the content of Bi in Zn-bath is 0.5 wt.%. The corrosion resistance of the galvanized coating declines with the increase of the content of Bi.
