Steel is the most widely used structural material in engineering applications. It has high strength and elasticity. But the major problem with steel is that it corrodes when comes in contact with the atmosphere. To avoid corrosion many techniques have been developed over the years. Coating the surface of steel with a non-corrosive element is the most common method. However, the currently used methods are expensive and need very controlled environmental conditions. In this paper, the dip coating method for coating zinc on mild steel is studied. The hardness of the surface after coating in measured and immersion tests was conducted. It was observed that the zinc coating done through the dip coating process could reduce the corrosion. This proves that the dip coating is an effective method to apply coating on mild steel. This method also has the advantage of lesser expenses.
