Abstract

The susceptibility of a Fe22Mn0.6C twinning-induced plasticity steel to liquid zinc embrittlement has been investigated by performing hot tensile tests on bare and electrogalvanized specimens using a Gleeble thermomechanical simulator. Tensile tests were carried out at different temperatures and strain rates. The studied steel can be severely embrittled by liquid zinc (drastic reductions in elongation at rupture and fracture strength) given particular conditions of temperature and strain rate.
