Solar support material galvanized

Which material is used for galvanizing a solar PV module?

In solar PV module mounting structure, iron is used for galvanizing process. Mild Steel Mild Steel is made by melting iron ore and coal together in a furnace. Once the melting is done, it is moved to another furnace to burn of any impurities. It has very low carbon content ranging between 0.5% to 0.25% in weight.

Which steel is best for PV mounting?

To do so, it requires a robust supporting structure made from high-quality steel with effective corrosion protection. With ZM Ecoprotect ® Solar, thyssenkrupp Steel now offering high-performance, zinc-magnesium-coated steels for PV mounting systems – durable, robust and sustainable.

What is the best corrosion protection for solar mounting structures?

Your contacts when it comes to high-performance corrosion protection for solar mounting structures: Arne Schreiber, Product Management and Jennifer Schulz, Surface Development. ZM Ecoprotect ® Solar offers several advantages compared to pure zinc coatings.

Does ThyssenKrupp steel offer zinc-magnesium based corrosion protection?

With ZM Ecoprotect ® Solar, thyssenkrupp Steel is now offering a zinc-magnesium-based corrosion protection solution that is significantly more effective than conventional hot dip galvanizing, and can withstand almost anything that the weather can throw at it.

What is Zm ecoprotect ® solar?

With ZM Ecoprotect ® Solar, we are clearly offering extra sustainability. It conserves resources through reduced use of zinc, it is 100 percent recyclable, and the entire portfolio is also available as bluemint ® Steel – our high-quality flat steel with reduced CO 2 intensity and the same excellent material and processing properties.
