Abstract
An understanding of intermetallic compound growth kinetics is essential for prediction and control of the microstructure formed during galvanizing. In this paper, by assuming a metastable equilibrium, a diffusion model is used to assess the tracer diffusion coefficients of Fe–Zn compounds. A set of self-consistent kinetic model parameters for the kinetic simulation of compound growth has been obtained. The evaluated model parameters are implemented in the DICTRA software to simulate a diffusion experiment, the simulation results agree well with experimental observations.
