Atramentizing is a corrosion protection process used to coat steel with a phosphate layer. This process involves:

  • Coating Steel: The steel is coated with a phosphate layer to enhance its resistance to corrosion.
  • Using Zinc Phosphate Solution: A zinc phosphate solution is used in the process.
  • Temperature: The coating is applied at a temperature of around 90°C (194°F).

The result is a phosphate coating that provides a protective layer on the steel, which helps prevent rust and extends the lifespan of the steel components.
