This is the debate that arises regularly every ten years or so. Fortunately, the facts which have been known for some time make the issues clear. We represent them here once again, is that the uninitiated amongst us can clearly see the issues from the, at times, aggressive marketing campaigns put forward by one side or the other. In fact inorganic zinc coatings and galvanising complement each other, both in their appropriate areas of application provide long term protection of steel.
They are not continuous films as with galvanising but in fact consist of zinc particles cemented in a bed of siliceous material. The word cement is not used lightly since complex reactions occur between the zinc metal, the silicate liquid and the atmosphere so that what is a relatively porous open structure of zinc metal particles when first aid applied becomes a dense, tightly bound cementitious like matrix structure over time.
Zinc Silicates were first practically used in the 1940's, over 50 years ago and their performance is well proven. Inorganic zinc silicate coatings should not be considered as a metallic coating because they have a vastly different structure compared to galvanising. Fully cured inorganic zinc is extremely hard and damage resistant because of the hard rock like characters of the zinc silicate matrix. This results in many inorganic zinc having a harder and more zinc obtained by galvanising.
Simplistically, galvanising is the result of the application of molten zinc to steel to form an amalgam of zinc with iron. Actually inorganic zinc coatings (hereinafter simply referred to as IOZ) and galvanising should not be treated as competitors but rather as complimentary, since both offer excellent protection in the applications for which they are best suited.
This is a major difference and is an important reason why under difficult corrosive conditions (tropical marine structures, coal wash plants etc.), the inorganic zinc coatings will have much longer life than galvanising. This has been proven to be the case not only in the laboratory, but also in the field. The literature discusses this in more detailed.
There is also considerable evidence within Australia, for example in coal washeries, where galvanising alone has been used unsuccessfully. Such as at South Backwater, Saxonvale, have shown dramatic depletion of zinc to the point of rusting and major repaints have had to be conducted.
Galvanising must be compared only with one prime coat of inorganic zinc. Further coats of paint are an additional coast for both protection systems. These numbers serve to remind us that hot dip galvanising is well suited for protection items such as piping, footplates, kick plates, safety rails, purlins, girt, bolts, light trusses and tubular sections, where the steel has a high surface area / tonne.
