The Influence of Heat Treatment on Corrosion Resistance and Microhardness of Hot-Dip Zinc Coating Deposited on Steel Bolts.

The analyzed topic refers to the corrosion resistance and changes in microhardness of the heat-treated (HT) hot-dip zinc coating deposited on bolts. The research aimed to evaluate the influence of the HT on the increase of the coating hardness and changes in anticorrosion properties. Hot-dip zinc coating was deposited in industrial conditions (acc.

The Impact of Heat Treatment on the Behavior of a Hot-Dip Zinc Coating Applied to Steel During Dry Friction.

The analyzed topic refers to the wear resistance and friction coefficient changes resulting from heat treatment (HT) of a hot-dip zinc coating deposited on steel. The aim of research was to evaluate the coating behavior during dry friction after HT as a result of microstructure changes and increase the coating hardness. The HT parameters should be determined by taking into consideration, on the one hand, coating wear resistance and, on the other hand, its anticorrosion properties.
