Objective
The objective of the research is to assess the relation between rolling, cooling and coiling conditions and scale properties and to establish the relationship between these scale properties and the processability of unpickled or unpickled and directly galvanised strip. The research activity will essentially be performed on material rolled on industrial hot strip mills partly from conventional partly from thin slabs. The applicability of the final products can also be tested on an industrial scale. Process conditions leading to thin and highly adherent scale should enable to avoid pickling, as a stage of the process, for a part of the hot strip intended for direct use.
