Abstract

Zinc-aluminium alloys are known as a die casting alloy and a superplastic alloy. Recently, many zinc-aluminium alloys have been developed for hot dip galvanizing. In this paper, the corrosion behaviour of these alloys is discussed. It is shown how the corrosion behaviour of zinc-aluminium alloys depends on the aluminium content and microstructure of the alloy.
