Zinc Aluminum Cadmium Alloy Wire FAQs
Q1. What is Zinc Aluminum Cadmium (Zn-Al-Cd) alloy wire used for?
Zn-Al-Cd alloy wire is primarily used in thermal spraying for corrosion protection of steel structures, such as bridges, pipelines, and marine equipment. It is also utilized in the production of batteries, in the electronics industry, and for specialized welding and soldering applications.
Q2. How is Zn-Al-Cd alloy wire applied in thermal spraying?
The wire is fed into a thermal spray gun, where it is melted by an electric arc, plasma, or flame. The molten alloy is then atomized and sprayed onto the surface to be coated, forming a protective layer.
Q3. What are the advantages of using Zn-Al-Cd alloy wire over pure metal wires?
Zn-Al-Cd alloy wire offers a unique combination of enhanced corrosion resistance, improved mechanical properties, and versatile application methods. The presence of aluminum and cadmium in the alloy significantly boosts its protective capabilities compared to pure zinc or aluminum wires.
