Abstract: | Most galvanized steel sheets are produced by a continuous galvanizing line. Some of the operations include a subsequent heat
treatment termed galvannealing to form intermetallic phases on the surface. These galvanizing reactions are essentially regarded
as “making intermetallic compounds” in the Fe-Zn-M system. This makes it important to know the thermodynamic properties of
the system for any detailed discussion on the formation of these intermetallics; however, experimental difficulties have limited
the number of studies. In the present study, two-phase regions of these intermetallics were examined, and the following two-phase
mixtures were prepared at 723 K: Fe(α)+Γ, Γ,+Γ1, Γ1+δ
1+ζ. The double cell-type Knudsen mass spectrometer system was developed and employed, in which two sets of Knudsen cells were
installed in the same cell holder. The reference material (pure zinc) was placed in one cell and a sample in the other. The
cell holder was rotated to the reference and sample positions to measure zinc vapor effused from two cells by a quadrupole
mass spectrometer. Material containing the two phases was placed in a Knudsen-type effusion cell and the mass spectrum studied
to evaluate the vapor pressure of zinc. The activity of zinc in the intermetallics was determined by comparing the intensity
from pure zinc and that from intermetallics. Results for Fe(α)+Γ were 0.46 to 0.48; for Γ+Γ1, 0.51 to 0.54; for Γ1+δ
1, 0.62 to 0.66; and for δ
1+ζ, 0.80 to 0.83, between the temperatures of 623 and 698 K. |
