Abstract: A new and more effective method for protecting steel from corrosion is coating it with galfan. Galfan is a metallic melting composed of 95% Zn and 5% Al. In this alloy, purely steel samples are dipped; during this process reactions between iron, zinc and aluminum are caused. As an outcome, we gain a new material, steel coated with a galfanic layer. The microstructure of galfanized steel and some mechanical properties are presented here.
