An extensive corrosion study was initiated by galvalume steel sheet manufacturing company to clarify the corrosion behavior of zinc and zinc and zinc-alloy coated automotive sheet steel in out panel and electrical application. Since the early 1980's the use of zinc and aluminum alloy coated steel for vehicular corrosion protection has increased drastically. This paper describes the evaluation of formability, weldability and painted corrosion performance of galvalume steel sheet. This paper presents an overview of the program and some initial test results on the weldability, lifetime of the electrode tip shape of the spot welding and corrosion protection. Galvalume steel sheet improved corrosion performance and spot weldability of galvalume steel has no problem for the variation of welding current. And tip lifetime was changed according to the influence of shape.

This paper presents an overview of the program and some initial test results on the weldability, lifetime of the electrode tip shape of the spot welding and corrosion protection. Galvalume steel sheet improved corrosion performance and spot weldability of galvalume steel sheet was not changed under the influence of the variation of welding current. And tip shape has influenced on the lifetime of tip for galvalume steel sheet.

Since the early 1980's the use of zinc-aluminum alloy-coated steel sheet(Galvalume) for vehicular corrosion protection has increased drastically. It is consisting of 55%Al-43.4% Zn-1.6%Si. Galvalume has a good corrosion resistance, heat reflectivity and shiny appearance, which has a dendritic structure of alloy layer. It has a good corrosion resistance due to dendritic structure. But, this also has a weak point against moisture during long period of transportation as sheeted and or coiled without any relation of chromating on the surface of steel sheet or not because of high humidity and temperature. Here, We studied the corrosion mechanism by the moisture.

Galvalume sheet steel was developed recently, and is used widely in several fields. It has and had a good corrosion resistance in open atmosphere, but it has week corrosion resistance in the ambient surroundings of an airtight packing. Therefore, black patina was synthesized on the surface of Galvalume sheet steel. Corrosion by moisture on a Galvalume surface begins from edge of a droplet and proceeds to the center of droplet. It begins mainly on the interdendritic structure instead of dendritic structure. This suggests that corrosion by moisture occurs on the Zn shrinkage hole from rapid air cooling. In addition, the initial corrosion occurs by the local cell and continues by the oxygen concentration cell.

In this paper, the elevated temperature on a concrete-galvalume composite beam's flexural strength based on the numerical and experimental methods is investigated. The strategy is to perform modeling and simulation of the flexural test based on finite element method (FEM) at room temperature and validate its results to experimental data at the same temperature. When the numerical model was proven valid, the model was utilized to simulate the effect of elevated temperatures on the composite element. The study concludes that the flexural strength of the beam decreases at higher temperature. Additionally, it was shown that cracking moments is susceptible to temperature fluctuation and the failure modes are sensitive concerning the elevated temperature.

Galvalume steel (GL) is widely used in marine and industrial environments. It is characterized by better corrosion resistance than carbon steel. However, corrosion and economic losses may occur as the usage time is increased. Therefore, in this study, an outdoor exposure test of GL for 36 months was conducted across six regions of Korea. Parameters such as corrosion rate, chrominance (color, chroma, and brightness), glossiness, and surface appearance were analyzed. The results showed no significant change in appearance, and the initial corrosion rate was large, but a tendency to decrease with time was observed. Increased outdoor exposure time led to increase in the level of corrosion products. In the case of coastal areas where S, Cl, and other elements were detected, a relatively high decrease in Zn content was observed. Al forms a protective oxide film and exists in the coating layer, but Zn dissolves due to its chemical activity and low potential.

HY-Galume is a brand name of 55%Al-Zn coated steel sheets produced by Hyundai HYSCO. Heavy gauged HY-Galume having thickness around 2 millimeters is used as a steel casing for the electrical distribution panel in the construction market. It requires a strict surface quality because it is used indoors. In this paper, several troubleshooting experiences in producing heavy gauged HY-Galume are proposed.
