Thermal spraying - Zinc, aluminium and their alloys - Part 1: Design considerations and quality requirements for corrosion protection systems (ISO 2063-1:2017)

This document specifies requirements for the protection of iron and steel surfaces against corrosion by
applying thermal-sprayed metallic coatings of zinc, aluminium or their alloys.
In this document, requirements for the planning of the corrosion protection system and for the
constructive design of the component to be protected are specified, where thermal spraying is intended
to be the process for the deposition of the metallic corrosion protection.
Some field-related basic terms are defined and instructions for corrosion behaviour of the zinc and
aluminium materials under different environment conditions are provided.
Characteristic properties of the coating, e.g. coating thickness, minimum adhesive strength and surface
appearance, are specified and test procedures for thermal-sprayed corrosion protection coatings of
zinc, aluminium or their alloys are determined.
This document is valid for applying thermal-sprayed zinc and aluminium protection coatings against
corrosion in the temperature range between –50 °C to +200 °C, taking into consideration the service
conditions of any sealants used. Heat-resistant protective coatings of aluminium are covered by
ISO 17834 and are not in the scope of this document.
Other corrosion protection processes, e.g. hot-dip galvanizing (galvanic coating), sherardizing,
electroplating or selection and deposition of organic coatings/paints are not in the scope of this
document.
Requirements for the manufacturing of thermal-sprayed coatings are specified in ISO 2063-2.

Introduction
In order to protect iron- and steel-based structures (e.g. for steel construction, bridge construction,
steel structures for water construction, onshore and offshore wind energy constructions, petrol and
natural gas industry) against corrosion, protective coatings are usually deposited. Corresponding to
type, shape and required functionality of the part, numerous procedures are available. The deposition
of corrosion protection coatings or coating systems can be done by applying hot-dip galvanizing,
organic coatings or thermal spraying of zinc, aluminium and their alloys. Using combinations of metallic
and organic coatings, duplex corrosion protection coating systems can be produced.
Thermal-sprayed corrosion protection coatings made of zinc, aluminium and their alloys can be
sprayed onto all steels which make up the components used in the relevant industrial application. This
may be carried out on-site, as well as in the workshop, regardless of the article’s size. Due to the usually
low heat input into the surface of the part, only a slight thermal loading of the substrate occurs, so that
changes in steel properties and deformation of the part do not occur.
Corrosion protection coatings can be used as repairs or rework of defects of other coatings (e.g. uncoated
hot-dip zinc galvanized areas) or worn coatings where thermal spraying can be applied on the spot. Due
to relative low investment costs, thermal spraying can also be economically applied for single parts.
The ISO 2063 series applies to thermal-sprayed metallic coatings to protect iron and steel against
corrosion by deposition of zinc, aluminium or their alloys onto the uncoated surface to be protected.
This document targets designers of components. It covers the planning engineering of the corrosion
protection system and deals with the basic rules for planning of corrosion protection systems and for
the constructive design of the components to be protected, if the protection system is based upon a
thermal-sprayed metallic coating.
ISO 2063-2 targets manufacturers of corrosion protection systems. It deals with the requirements for
the execution of the corrosion protection works by thermal spraying in the workshop and on-site.

Note 1 to entry: Maintenance includes, but is not limited to, paintwork. Such paintwork can be patch painting
(repair included spots/areas of the coating system), patch painting followed by over-painting of the structure or
total repairing in accordance with ISO 12944-8.
4 Criteria for corrosion and corrosion protection by thermal-sprayed coatings
4.1 General
Thermal-sprayed coatings of zinc, aluminium and their alloys can significantly increase the effectiveness
of the corrosion protection and the service life of the parts. Thermal-sprayed coatings are to be applied
preference, if a long time effective corrosion protection is required.
4.2 Corrosivity categories and environment conditions
The corrosivity category provides a basic rule for selecting materials and corrosion protection measures
in relation to requirements for the individual application, especially for the service life. Definitions of
corrosivity categories and environment conditions are given in ISO 9223 and ISO 12944-2. Additional
notes for measuring relevant environment parameters are given in ISO 9225.
Annex A contains a list of typical environments related to the estimation of corrosivity categories.
4.3 Corrosion rate
The corrosion rate of a material is given by the medium and by the exposure time of moisture, air
pollution, temperature and contamination of the surface.
ISO 9224 contains information about corrosion rates for different metals. Additional information for
metallic materials related to the likelihood of corrosion in the atmosphere environment is given in
ISO 9223.
4.4 Coating materials and corrosion behaviour
4.4.1 General
The coating material and the required coating thickness are to be selected and specified in relation to
the expected corrosivity, the required design life and construction design.
The corrosion rate of metals and alloys, are not constant over the course of the exposure time. For most
metals and alloys, it decreases with time of the exposure due to the accumulation of corrosion products
on the surface of the exposed metal.

SIST EN ISO 2063-1:2017
ISO 2063-1:2017(E)

The corrosion rates of thermal-sprayed coatings are different from bulk materials and other types of
metallic coatings due to porosity of thermal-sprayed coatings.
4.4.2 Zinc and zinc alloys
Zinc possesses a high resistance to corrosion due to its passive behaviour against atmospheric attack.
However, the corrosion rate per year is affected by the composition of the atmosphere.
The rate of corrosion of zinc or zinc coatings in water depends mainly on the pH value, the carbon
dioxide value and the salt and oxygen content of the water. In neutral or slightly alkaline water, zinc
corrodes insignificantly only.
Alloying of aluminium up to a content of 15 mass % to the zinc base metal generates a higher corrosion

with the cathodic protection of zinc.
NOTE Many applications of zinc and zinc a
