Objective The increased use of single sided galvanised high strength cold rolled steel sheet is being hampered due to problems involved in phosphating the bare side. This research project is aimed at: - achieving basic knowledge of phosphating of high strength steel; including the development of a specific test aimed at predicting the phosphatability of a given steel strip; - understanding the causes of poor phosphatability on the bare side of single sided galvanised high strength steel sheet; - defining the limits and optimisation of the steel processing route and of phosphating parameters to ensure trouble-free operations.
