    Abstract

    In this study, the effect of manganese content in the steel on the dynamic reactive wetting behavior of low-carbon IF (interstitial-free) steel by liquid zinc was investigated. The initial wetting behavior could be explained by the traditional wetting theory according to the Cassie equation. As the chemical reactions between liquid zinc and steel plate started, the surface oxide film on the steel plate prevented the chemical reactions by occupying the reaction sites.
