“…[13][14][15] Rare earth (RE) elements such as La and Ce can enhance the wettability and adhesion, fostering a more homogeneous microstructure. [16,17] Ma et al [18] found that a Zn-Al-Mg-Sn hot-dip coating led to nano-sized Mg 2 Sn particle formation, which correlated with improved corrosion resistance and microhardness. Xie et al [19] discovered that adding 3% Mg to a Zn-5Al alloy resulted in the formation of basic zinc chloride (Zn 5 (OH) 8 Cl 2 •H2O), significantly improving corrosion resistance.…”

Hot dip galvanized zinc‐aluminum‐magnesium steel plates are widely used in fields such as power communication, automotive manufacturing, and marine engineering due to their excellent corrosion resistance. The use of microalloying can further improve their corrosion resistance. The effects of B on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of Zn–6Al–3Mg (ZAM) alloy coatings are systematically examined. Data indicates that the eutectic structure of the coating progressively refines as B content increases, concomitant with a reduction in the thickness of the Fe2Al5 inhibition layer owing to the augmented formation of an Al‐rich phase at the surface. When the addition of B reaches 0.12%, the microstructure of the alloy coating is minimized, and there is no further reduction in the thickness of the Fe2Al5 inhibition layer. Moreover, the presence of B diminishes the corrosion current density and bolsters corrosion resistance. Optimal corrosion performance, indicated by maximal density and uniformity of surface corrosion products and the lowest corrosion current density, is achieved at a B addition of 0.12%. The judicious selection of B content is pivotal for enhancing the microstructural and anti‐corrosive properties of ZAM alloy coatings. Therefore, adding 0.12% B to ZAM alloy can effectively improve the microstructure and corrosion resistance of the alloy coating.

The corrosion of steel materials has become a global issue, causing significant socio-economic losses and safety concerns. Hot-dip galvanizing is currently one of the most widely used steel anti-corrosion processes. With the rapid advancement of science and technology and emerging industries, the performance of pure galvanized products struggles to meet the demands of practical applications in various environments. Consequently, researchers have begun introducing various metals into the zinc solution to form high-performance alloy coatings. This article primarily explains the process flow of hot-dip galvanizing and the impact of metal elements such as Al, Mg, Sn, and Bi on the coating, as well as outlining the major issues currently faced by the hot-dip galvanizing process. The objective is to offer a more comprehensive introduction to those new to the field of hot-dip galvanizing and to provide theoretical insights for addressing production issues.
