  2. Hot-dip galvanization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-dip_galvanization

    Galvanized fumes are released when the galvanized metal reaches a certain temperature. This temperature varies by the galvanization process used. In long-term, continuous exposure, the recommended maximum temperature for hot-dip galvanized steel is 200 °C (392 °F), according to the American Galvanizers Association.

  5. Aluminized steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminized_steel

    Aluminized steel is more resistant to corrosion than bare steel [1] while retaining properties of steel, at temperature lower than the melting point of aluminum, 800 °C (1,470 °F). Common applications include heat exchangers in residential furnaces, commercial rooftop HVAC units, automotive mufflers , ovens, kitchen ranges, water heaters ...

    The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.

  8. Galvanization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanization

    Galvanized surface with visible spangle. Galvanization (also spelled galvanisation) [1] is the process of applying a protective zinc coating to steel or iron, to prevent rusting. The most common method is hot-dip galvanizing, in which the parts are coated by submerging them in a bath of hot, molten zinc. [citation needed]

  9. Alloy steel - Wikipedia

    Increases hardenability by lowering transformation points and causing transformations to be sluggish Molybdenum: 0.2–5 Stable carbides; inhibits grain growth. Increases the toughness of steel, thus making molybdenum a very valuable alloy metal for making the cutting parts of machine tools and also the turbine blades of turbojet engines.
