The samples before and after corrosion test were analyzed with optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy to obtain microstructure image and Energy Dispersive Spectrometry (EDS) for elemental analysis. It was found that iron diffusion increases with multiple galvanizing process. It was also found that Zn-Al-Mg corrosion performance is good due to the presence of Magnesium (Mg) which forms protective oxide.
