FOREWORD
This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the Lead, Zinc, Cadmium, Tin, Antimony and Their Alloys Sectional Committee had been approved by the Metallurgical Engineering Division Council.
The consistency of performance of zinc coatings meant that most coating methods essentially start with a reasonably pure zinc. The interest in alloy coatings has not only developed to reduce the cost of materials, but also to obtain still longer lives for zinc coated products. It is well recognized that aluminium in zinc increases its corrosion resistance but to some extent decreases its power of cathodic protection at edges and scratches. However addition of mischmetal in ‘zinc-5 percent aluminium’ alloy virtually gives same cathodic protection as pure zinc, up to twice long-term corrosion resistance. Moreover the ‘zinc-5 percent aluminium-mischmetal’ coatings are extremely flexible and can be bent with a smoother result than the pure zinc coating.
In the preparation of this standard, assistance has been derived for ASTM standard B 750 : 88 ‘Zmc-5 percent Aluminium-Mischmetal Alloy ( UNS 238510 ) in ingot Form For Hot-Dip Coatings’, issued by the American Society for Testing and Materials, USA.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with,. the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in ~rrnrrlanr~ with TS 3 * lQf3-l ‘RII~PC fnr rc~gn&gg VnlllPf VII 1-s --“v.-..s.-- 1.1. Y l” a . .S”” -.,a.-” a__ gff nnml=riral --l-1*1w-l ,-...I_ ( reviser! 1’. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
