Enhanced hot dip galvanizing by controlled oxidation in the annealing furnace

Objective

High strength steel strip will find in the future more and more applications. In many of these new applications, high strength steel is hot-dip galvanised to resist corrosion. Having experienced quality problems of the coating, a systematic study is needed in view to guarantee high and consistent quality of the galvanised and galvannealed high strength steel strip. This project will examine the influence of surface preoxidation by changing the non- oxidising furnace control on the final quality. The following reduction section will also be adapted to optimise strip surface composition. Steel grade and surface pre-treatment, before annealing, will also be taken into account. The correlation of the different process parameters and the surface final quality should lead to a better understanding of the metallurgical reactions during the whole galvanising process.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Call for proposal

Procedure for inviting applicants to submit project proposals, with the aim of receiving EU funding.
