1.4832 | GX25CrNiSi20-14 Dipstick for molten zinc
| Numeric designation | 1.4832 |
|---|---|
| Chemical designation | GX25CrNiSi20-14 |
| State | Dipstick for molten zinc |
| Etching | ungeätzt |
The steel reacts superficially with the zinc bath, which also contains some Al, and dissolves in it over time. eta-Fe2Al5 – in this case actually Fe2(Al,Zn)5 – has precipitated in the adhering zinc melt, which in some cases has penetrated like a crack.
