The purpose of this research is to characterize and evaluate the corrosion behavior of zinc coatings used for corrosion protection, with a special focus on the S235 steel material. The introduction highlights the need for corrosion protection in industrial settings, as well as the importance of understanding corrosion processes and the development of corrosion products to develop more effective solutions. The study’s goals are to undertake an extensive analysis of corrosion products formed on the zinc coating’s surface, to evaluate the performance of these coatings under atmospheric circumstances, and to investigate the effect of deposition parameters on coating quality. The essential message provided to readers is the critical significance of knowing corrosion product formation mechanisms and zinc coating corrosion behavior in developing long-lasting and effective protection measures. The study methodology includes cycle testing, morphological and chemical examination of corrosion products, as well as optical and electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. Corrosion resistance is assessed using accurate measurements. The results show that zinc coatings have exceptional corrosion resistance under air settings, with the produced corrosion products offering further protection to the underlying material. Furthermore, the study demonstrates that the surface roughness of S235 steel has a substantial impact on the quality and corrosion behavior of hot-dip galvanized coatings. The findings emphasize the necessity of detailed characterization of corrosion products, the effect of depositional factors on zinc coating performance, and the need for novel corrosion protection methods. These discoveries have significant implications for the corrosion protection sector, providing the potential to improve the longevity and efficiency of protective systems used in industrial applications.
