When the zinc layer is seriously damaged and endangers the iron matrix, the zinc will produce electrochemical protection on the matrix, the standard potential of zinc is -0.76V and the standard potential of iron is -0.44V. When zinc and iron form microbatteries, the zinc will be dissolved as the anode, and the iron will be protected as the cathode. Obviously, the atmospheric corrosion resistance of hot dip galvanizing is better than that of electric galvanizing.

In the purchase of large rolls of galvanized wire, see the hardness of galvanized wire first, only after the hardness reaches the standard can be used. The hardness standard of large roll galvanized wire is a very important performance index and an economic test method. But for the hardness of metal materials, there is not a unified and clear definition including all test methods at home and abroad.

Zinc is a silver-white metal, brittle at room temperature, soluble in acid can also be soluble in alkali, known as amphoteric metal. Pure zinc in dry air is more stable, in humid air or containing carbon dioxide and oxygen water is small, the surface will generate a layer of basic zinc carbonate based thin film layer, it can delay the corrosion rate of zinc layer. The corrosion resistance of zinc coating in aqueous solution of acid, alkali and sodium chloride is stronger.
