Abstract
The hot-dip aluminized process parameters with respect to the thickness and microstructure of intermetalic layer were investigated using a uniform design of experiments. The measured thickness of intermetalic layer was regressed as first- to third-order polynomial equations of four related parameters, i.e. hot-dip temperature, hot-dip time, diffusion treatment temperature and diffusion treatment time. It was found that the third-order regressed equation was acceptable and appropriate to identify the influences of the investigated parameters on the thickness of intermetalic layer. Comprehensive analysis of the results based on the regressed equation and microstructure could supply believable and optimized process parameters.
