Abstract
The state of knowledge of formation of the galvanneal coating on continuous process lines is reviewed. Influences of materials and process variables on phase makeup that are key to achieving acceptability are reviewed. Current targets for key process variables are then described, followed by a consideration of the most frequent galvanneal coating quality issues and their causes. New developments in roll texturing for temper rolling of galvanneal are then described.
