EFFECT OF CONVENTIONAL AND NON-CONVENTIONAL (ECOFRIENDLY) FLUXES ON HOT DIP GALVANIZING - A REVIEW
Keywords:
Hot dip galvanizing, corrosion, coating, fluxing, passivation, etc.Abstract
Galvanizing is very common practice now a day for corrosion prevention through modification of surface of
the metal to be protected. In this process, the various techniques are used from which one of the most common is hot dip
galvanizing. Before hot dip galvanizing, fluxing is to be done of metal surface. Again, the fluxes ha ving many categories
like conventional flux and non – conventional flux. Non – conventional flux has many plus points compared to the conventional flux which is discussed in this paper elaborately.
