FIFTY FIFTY
Fluxing salt.
As the dry fluxing technique was introduced into the hot-dip galvanizing process, so began the debate on the best balance between ammonium chloride and zinc chloride in the fluxing bath. Through our worldwide and long experience, the Soprin team has identified the best molar composition as 2.5:1, that is 50% zinc chloride and 50% ammonium chloride. This composition is the best solution to the various fluxing needs in general galvanizing plants for all sorts of steel pieces of differing shape, thickness and composition.
Soprin has also taken other factors into account when selecting the salts that make up FIFTY-FIFTY:
- Maximum purity of the material to avoid build-up of unwanted substances in the fluxing bath;
- FIFTY-FIFTY is anhydrous and micro-crystalline in formulation, so it helps product solubility, and avoids undissolved salt from forming heaps on the tank bottom;
- Simple management;
- Maximum compatibility with Soprin’s additives for the fluxing bath: FILMFLUX and ANTIBLAST.
