Abstract
This specification covers zinc master alloys which are used in hot dip galvanizing for the purpose of adjusting the concentration of certain alloying elements in the molten zinc bath. The paper presented the chemical composition of these materials which include six master alloys of zinc aluminium; Type A-1, Type A-2, Type A-3, Type A-4, Type A-5, Type A-6, and one master alloy of zinc-antimony, Type S-1. The material covered by this specification shall be made of uniform quality and shall be free from harmful contamination. The alloys shall be tested and conform to the required chemical composition requirements.
Scope
1.1 This specification covers zinc master alloys which are used in hot dip galvanizing for the purpose of adjusting the concentration of certain alloying elements in the molten zinc bath. Table 1 covers the chemical composition of these materials which include six master alloys of zinc-aluminum (brightener) and one master alloy of zinc-antimony.
