<p>The present application discloses a method for hot-dip galvanizing and galvannealing which employs a bath of zinc and aluminum. Strips are immersed in the bath to produce substantially dross-free galvannealed and galvanized strips. The bath can have substantially the same effective aluminum concentration during galvannealing as during galvanizing, and the temperature set-point of the bath is at a temperature of about 440 °C to about 450 °C. The snout temperature of the strip is controlled between 470 °C and 538 °C, depending on the composition of the steel.</p> |
