Ce. Jordan et al., METALLOGRAPHIC PREPARATION TECHNIQUE FOR HOT-DIP GALVANIZED AND GALVANNEALED COATINGS ON STEEL, Materials characterization, 31(2), 1993, pp. 107-114
A new metallographic technique for hot-dip galvanized and galvannealed
coatings has been developed. The new polishing procedure and etchant
have shown excellent results on commercial hot-dip galvanized and galv
anneal coatings, as well as on laboratory-simulated hot-dip galvanneal
produced under a variety of thermal processing parameters.
