Excerpt from Galvanizing and Tinning: A Practical Treatise on the Coating of Metal With Zinc and Tin by the Hot Dipping, Electro-Galvanizing, Sherardizing and Metal Spraying Processes, With Information on Design, Installation and Equipment of Plants
Since it was published, many improvements have been made in the hot galvanizing and tinning processes. Several new methods of utilizing zinc and tin for protection against corrosion have also been devised and perfected. Mr. Flanders did not feel qualified to treat these new processes, and, as a majority of them are cov ered by patents, it was difficult to obtain practical information regarding their application, as well as the design and installation of the apparatus.
Several of the experts who had specialized on the new processes refused to contribute because they deemed their methods trade secrets, while others supplied splendid advertising matter for their special process, but little practical data.
