What is Understanding Spangle Formation in Zinc Coatings about?

This document summarizes research on the solidification and spangle formation process of hot-dip galvanized zinc coatings. Key findings include: 1) Zinc nucleation occurs at the steel/zinc interface, then rapid sideways dendritic growth of zinc grains expands along the interface until it is fully covered. 2) The shape and size of zinc grains is determined at this early solidification stage, though further thickening occurs slowly as the surface cools. 3) As solidification progresses, alloying elements l
