Galvanizing is a process of applying a layer of metallic zinc to the surface of a steel plate, which is intended to protect the steel plate from corrosion and thus extend its service life. This thin steel plate that has been galvanized is called a galvanized sheet. Galvanizing achieves the purpose of protection by covering the surface of the steel with a dense layer of zinc.
Stainless steel refers to steel types that can resist corrosion from air, steam, water and various chemically corrosive media (such as acids, alkalis, and salts), so it is also called stainless acid-resistant steel. Stainless steel is made by adding other metal elements to steel to cause changes in the internal structure, so that the product has the characteristic of not rusting.
In the field of application
Galvanized sheet steel strip is widely used in many industries such as construction, light industry, automobiles, agriculture, animal husbandry, fishery and commerce. They are often used as building roof panels, roof grilles, etc.; kitchen utensils are also one of its important application areas; in addition, this material is often used in the storage and transportation and packaging of materials.
Stainless steel plays a vital role in the construction field due to its excellent strength and corrosion resistance, especially in industries such as food processing, catering, brewing, and chemical industries where strict hygiene conditions are required.
1. Different materials: galvanized sheet is a cold-rolled steel sheet with a zinc layer on the surface, while stainless steel is an alloy steel containing alloy elements such as chromium.
2. Different corrosion resistance: Stainless steel has strong corrosion resistance, while galvanized sheet has low corrosion resistance.
3. Different appearance: The surface of stainless steel is smoother and has a metallic luster, while the surface of the galvanized sheet has a silver-gray matte feel.
4. Different prices: Generally speaking, the price of stainless steel is higher than that of galvanized sheet.
