Galvalume steel coil is a type of steel coil that has a coating of aluminum-zinc alloy, which is applied to it through a continuous hot-dip process. The coating provides corrosion resistance to the steel. It is ideal for use in outdoor environments and in applications where moisture and humidity are present.
Galvalume steel coils are commonly used in roofing, siding, and other construction applications. They offer a combination of durability, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance that makes them a popular choice in extreme environmental conditions.
The name "Galvalume" is a combination of "galvanized" and "aluminum," reflecting the fact that the coating is made up of both materials. The coating consists of aluminum (55%), silicone (1.6%), and zinc (43.4%).
The aluminum coating offers malleability, while the zinc offers galvanic protection for the steel from corrosion. This coating gives the steel a plain and smooth finish while ensuring long-lasting performance and aesthetic appeal for the finished project.
Galvalume steel coils are resistant to corrosion and rusting, which means they can last for several decades even in harsh environments. According to research, galvalume has proven its outstanding performance in North America, which is prone to extreme conditions such as winter and acid rain.
The outdoor exposure tests on actual building installations prove that Galvalume steel sheets and coils are more resilient and have better corrosion resistance than zinc-coated sheets with the same coating thickness under the same harsh conditions. The steel's service life expectancy can reach an average of up to 35 years without regular maintenance.

Galvalume has an alloy coating of 55 percent aluminum, 43.5 percent zinc, and 1.5 percent silicon during the hot-dip process. Silicon acts as a barrier against the development of a breakable intermetallic layer. This layer develops during the hot-dip processing while the zinc coating takes place.
The molten coating and steel sheet interact during the manufacturing, affecting the coating's adhesion during applications. The hard and brittle intermetallic alloy layer must remain thin during processing by adding silicon to the 55 percent aluminum-zinc bath. Silicon helps control the expansion of the alloy layer, making it formable during application.
Silicon does not have a role in preventing corrosion. Some applications of aluminum-zinc-silicon alloy-coated steel were not effective in deep drawing. Instead of using steel coils or sheets with a 55 percent aluminum-zinc-silicon alloy, customers prefer galvanized sheets.
Recent coating technology uses clear resin coatings known as 55 percent Al-Zn Plus, which are effective in some applications of deep drawing.
The 55% Al-Zn coating microstructure of galvalume consists of two phases. The first phase is known as the aluminum-rich dendritic phase, which develops during the solidification process. At this phase, the dendrite growth is due to the swift movement of the solid or liquid interface in the direction of the undercooled melt.
The second phase is known as the interdendritic zinc-rich region. It develops when the solidifying liquid's zinc concentration is at its highest peak. The microstructure phases are vital to reaching the ideal corrosion resistance.
Apart from the two primary microstructural phases, there are other phases involved in the process, such as the intermetallic layer at the steel-coating interface and the discrete needles of the elemental silicon.

Galvalume steel coils have superior performance compared to galvanized coatings in rural, industrial, and marine environments. The aluminum-zinc alloy coating has a unique dendritic structure that protects the steel from corrosion.
The zinc-rich areas are the first to corrode under harsh conditions. The corrosion rate decreases in the interdendritic areas of the coating because the corrosive products penetrate the interdendritic interstices. This development results in the flattening of the corrosion rate curve in various environments.
The 55 percent aluminum zinc coating corrosion behavior works differently with a galvanized coating, which has a uniform thinning process. The aluminum-rich dendrites act as a protective coating, while the zinc-rich regions offer galvanic protection to prevent rusting on the sheared and exposed parts of the steel.
The 55% aluminum-zinc steel products are excellent in outdoor environments, such as AZ50, AZ55, and AZ60. AZ50 galvalume steel coil has the same thickness as the G90 galvanized coating. It is perfect for corrugated steel pies with an AZ70 coating.

People use it as material for heat-insulation for its thermal reflectivity as high as twice the galvanized steel sheet.
The aluzinc steel coil could bear above 300ºC high temperature with its good performance in heat-resistance, quite similar to the aluminized steel sheet's performance in oxidation-resistance under high temperature. It is often used for chimney pipe, oven, illominator, and fluorescent lamp cover.
The essential of galvalume steel coil's corrosive-resistance lies at aluminium's protective property. Once the zinc come under abrasion, the aluminium would form a layer of densified oxidized aluminium, preventing the interior from further corrosion.
The density of 55%AL-Zn is smaller than Zn, therefore, with the same weight and thickness of coating, the galvalume steel sheet is 3% larger in area than that of galvanized steel sheet.
There is perfect adhesiveness between galvalume sheet and paint, saving the process of pre-treatment and weathering for painting work.
The coating material on the galvalume steel sheet is outstanding in its adhesiveness, which could be directly tarring on the advertising board and commonly used board with no pre-treatment such as weathering process.
Construction: civil and industrial building roofs, facades, substrates for painted rolls, garage doors.
Industrial instruments: electric control cabinets, industrial freezers, vending machines.
Usually, building roofs are the most widely used.
