ASTM A653 steel sheets are hot-dip galvanized steel sheets made from hot-rolled steel plates. The surface is coated with a layer of zinc.
Commonly referred to as hot-dip galvanizing or hot-dipping, this process involves immersing the material in a liquid zinc bath. This method, known for substantial coating thickness, is recognized for providing excellent resistance to rust and corrosion.
Unlike materials with painting or electroplating, the zinc-coated steel formed an alloy layer through a strong metal bond between zinc and iron. This strong bond ensures that the coating remains intact over an extended period without peeling.
The chemical composition of A653 steel includes carbon (C) up to 0.15%, manganese (Mn) up to 0.80%, Phosphorus (P) up to 0.05%, and Sulfur (S) up to 0.05%. The thickness of the plate ranges from 1.6 mm to 6.0 mm.
A653 steel resists rust and corrosion effectively.
The corrosion resistance of hot-dip galvanizing involves both a protective film effect and sacrificial corrosion protection. The protective film effect forms a zinc oxide film on the steel surface, reducing the permeability of air and water. The sacrificial corrosion protection ensures that even if the zinc coating is damaged, zinc around the damaged area dissolves to protect the exposed iron, preventing corrosion.
A653 steel finds applications in a wide range of fields, including structural components for facility horticulture greenhouses, various building materials, outdoor construction materials, and casings for household appliances.
