Impact of alkaline and acid treatment on the surface chemistry of a hot-dip galvanized Zn–Al–Mg coating

The surface chemistry of an exemplary hot-dip galvanized Zn–Al–Mg coating comprising 1.6 wt.% aluminum and 1.1 wt.% magnesium was characterized by means of secondary and transmission electron microscopy as well as synchrotron radiation X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Lamellae of the coating prepar...
