Abstract

Zn–Ni alloy based coatings have high corrosion resistance, good adherence and
unique physical as well as mechanical properties. In the present work, nickel was
dispersed in the under layer of hot dip zinc coating (Galvanizing). showed substantial
improvement in physical as well as galvanic performance. The presence of nickel in the
under layer was found to result in good adherence, less porosity and better hardness .The
presence of nickel decreases the thickness of the coating and enhances the corrosion
resistance character.
