A review on recent approaches in the field of hot dip zinc galvanizing process

The recent developments in the field of hot dip zinc coating are reviewed with special reference to different industrial applications. The improvements in physical and chemical structural composition due to pre- and post-modification processes are discussed. The present review has the focus mainly on the readership of young researchers engaged in this field. Very recent developments on the hot dip galvanization processes are highlighted. Their industrial competencies with aluminium dipping are also briefly discussed. The scopes for immediate future developments are also highlighted then and there. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
