CORROSION TESTS ON METALLIZED COATED STEEL-10 YEAR REPORT

THE RESULTS OF A 10 YEAR INSPECTION OF METALLIZED COATED STEEL PANELS INDICATE SIGNIFICANTLY THE CORROSION PROTECTION LIFE OF SOME TYPES AND THICKNESSES OF METALLIZED COATINGS UNDER NUMEROUS ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. ALL ALUMINUM COATINGS, SEALED OR UNSEALED, IN ALL ENVIRONMENTS ARE STILL PROVIDING THE STEEL WITH ADEQUATE PROTECTION AGAINST CORROSION. THE MAJORITY OF 0.003 IN. THICK ZINC COATINGS EXPOSED TO THE ATMOSPHERE HAVE FAILED AS HAVE 0.003, 0.006 AND 0.009 IN. THICK ZINC COATINGS WHICH WERE EXPOSED TO SEA WATER IMMERSION ENVIRONMENTS. /AUTHOR/
