    Nickel Tablets: Effect of Nickel On Coating Thickness (Sandelin Effect)

    Uploaded by

    Eng-Ahmed Allam
    The document discusses the Sandelin effect, which is the impact of nickel on coating thickness when galvanizing steel. It describes how the optimal silicon content in steel is 0.04-0.12%, which results in the highest zinc coating thickness. It then explains how nickel helps improve coating properties such as thickness, ductility and appearance. Specifically, nickel tablets provide benefits over other nickel addition methods like reducing nickel usage and not requiring special equipment or expertise.

    Ni-Zn Silicon Equivalent (wt%)

    The highest zinc coating is reached when the silicon in the steel is
    0,04 to 0,12%, this range is called the "Sandelin Curve".

    From this graph, it can easily be seen that in the Si killed steel, the
    example is 0,26% silicon, the coating thickness increases directly
    proportional with time, whereas in the unkilled steel, this increase is
    very slow. And even after 2 minutes dipping, the coating thickness is
    double in Si killed steel.

    Why Nickel?

    Sandelin Effect • Reactive Steels;


    - Prevents high coating thicknesses.
    - Prevents growth of Fe-Zn alloy layer.
    - Prevents dark grey coatings.
    - Prevents peeling of coating.
    - Increases the coating homogenity.
    • Zinc saving from 5% to 15% in weight.
    • Increases coating ductility.
    • Smoother and brighter surface finish.
    • Increases the fluidity of the Zn bath.
    • Aesthetical coating appearance.

    Coating with Nickel

    Why Nickel Tablet?

    • Less Nickel using up to 30% compared to Zinc-Nickel alloy ingot and


    powder Nickel applications.
    - Zinc Nikel Alloy Ingot, 1.7 kg Ni addition per ton Zinc.
    - Nickel Powder 1.8 kg Ni addition per ton Zinc.
    - Nickel Tablet, 0.75 - 1 kg Ni addition per ton Zinc.
    • Removes workmanship from the nickel joint.
    • The implementation is very simple and fast.
    • No special expertise or tools required.
    • Nickel floats on the surface of the zinc bath more than other
    Normal coating methods, therefore does not settle down to zinc ash and dross.
    • Nickel automatically dissolves in zinc bath.
    • No dependency on purchasing of HG / SHG Zinc.

    Why ANI METAL Nickel Tablet?

    Bearded coating • Others: Nickel + Wax


    • ANI Metal: Nickel + Wax + X (X is our “know-how”).
    - ANI Metal tablets create more heat shield when burn off
    therefore they prevent consumption by oxidation.
    - Increases the solubility in zinc.
    Reactive coating - Prevents the precipitation to dross.
