Abstract WEIRKOTE PLUS is a Galfan-coated sheet steel. The sheet is conventional low-carbon steel normally used for galvanized sheets and strip. This digest will concentrate on the characteristics and properties of the Galfan coating which is nominally a 95% zinc-5% aluminum alloy. The coating on Weirkote Plus is ideal for a variety of tough applications. It is excellent for products that require deep drawing and it combines extra corrosion resistance with superior formability. This datasheet provides information on composition and physical properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: Zn-41. Producer or source: Weirton Steel Corp.

The primary purpose of this work was to study the effectiveness of using diamond-like coatings (DLC) to increase the wear resistance of carbide end mills and improve the surface quality of the processed part when milling aluminum alloy and low-carbon steel. The functional role of forming an adhesive sublayer based on (CrAlSi)N immediately before the application of the external DLC film by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) technology in the composition of a multicomponent gas mixture containing tetramethylsilane was established in the article. The article shows the degree of influence of the adhesive sublayer on important physical, mechanical, and structural characteristics of DLCs (hardness, modulus of elasticity, index of plasticity, and others). A quantitative assessment of the effect of single-layer DLCs and double-layer (CrAlSi)N/DLCs on the wear rate of end mills during operation and the surface roughness of machined parts made of aluminum alloy AlCuMg2 and low-carbon steel 41Cr4 was performed.

The effect of trace amounts of GaF3 and Ga2O3 nanoparticles on the wettability and spreadability of CsF-AlF3 flux matched Zn-15Al filler metal were comparatively studied on 6061 aluminum alloy and Q235 low-carbon steel. The experimental results indicate that appropriate amounts of GaF3 and Ga2O3 added into the flux could significantly promote the Zn-15Al filler metal to wet and spread on the surface of 6061 aluminum alloy and Q235 low-carbon steel. The optimum ranges for GaF3 and Ga2O3 were 0.0075–0.01wt.% and 0.009–0.01 wt.%, respectively. Comparative analysis showed that the activity of CsF-AlF3 flux bearing GaF3 was higher than that bearing Ga2O3. The reason for this is that the former flux has a stronger ability to remove oxides of the base metal and reduce the interfacial tension of the molten filler metal and the base metal.
