17、1 DiscussionThis finish is produced by one of twomethods: either (1) the zinc crystal growth has been started butarrested by special production practices during solidification ofthe zinc, or (2) the zinc crystal growth is inhibited by acombination of coating-bath chemistry plus cooling duringsolidif
18、ication of the zinc. Minimized spangle is normallyproduced in coating designations G90 Z275 and lighter.3.6 regular spangle, nthe finish produced on hot-dipzinc-coated steel sheet in which there is a visible multifacetedzinc crystal structure.3.6.1 DiscussionSolidification of the zinc coating is typ
19、i-cally uncontrolled, which produces the variable grain sizeassociated with this finish.3.7 spangle-free, nthe uniform finish produced on hot-dipzinc-coated steel sheet in which the visual spangle pattern,especially the surface irregularities created by spangle forma-tion, is not visible to the unai
20、ded eye.3.7.1 DiscussionThis finish is produced when the zinccrystal growth is inhibited by a combination of coating-bathchemistry, or cooling, or both during solidification of the zinc.4.

Because of the many variables and changing conditions that are cha
28、racteristic ofcontinuous hot-dip coating lines, the zinc coating is not always evenly divided between the two surfaces of a coated sheet; nor is it always evenly distributed from edgeto edge. However, the minimum triple-spot average coating weight (mass) on any one side shall not be less than 40 % o
29、f the single-spot requirement.BAs it is an established fact that the atmospheric corrosion resistance of zinc coated sheet products is a direct function of coating thickness (weight (mass), the selectionof thinner (lighter) coating designations will result in almost linearly reduced corrosion perfor
30、mance of the coating. For example, heavier galvanized coatings performadequately in bold atmospheric exposure whereas the lighter coatings are often further coated with paint or a similar barrier coating for increased corrosion resistance.Because of this relationship, products carrying the statement
31、 “meets ASTM A1063/A1063Mrequirements” should also specify the particular coating designation.CNo minimum means that there are no established minimum requirements for triple- and single-spot tests.A1063/A1063M 1025.2.3 When a SS or HSLAS designation is specified, statethe appropriate grade, or class
