Description
For Aluminum Conductor Steel Supported designs with average working temperatures of 80ยฐC, the drive to increase a conductorโs current carrying capacity by enabling it to operate at higher temperatures results in emergency peaks up to 250ยฐC. Galvanized (zinc) coatings are generally limited to a maximum service temperature for extended times of 180-200ยฐC. This paper describes how Bezinalยฎ ZnAl coatings resist to temperatures as high as 350ยฐC with no significant negative effects on either coating ductility or salt spray corrosion resistance.
