The result shows that the addition of mischmetal in Zn+5 wt%Al alloy decreases the surface tension of the alloy,reduces the wetting angle of the liquid alloy raising in steel substrate surface and enhances the adhesive power and wettability between them.It is concluded that the mischmetal addition in baths influences the reac- tion between steel sheet and liquid Zn+5 wt%Al alloy and thus improves the wettability of them.展开更多
