Properties of Precoated Galvannealed Steel Sheets for Lead-Free Automotive Fuel Tank Use 2000-01-0307

The goal of this study was to identify a pre-coated steel sheet that will satisfy press formability, seam weldability, spot weldability, brazing property, external corrosion resistance and internal fuel resistance. We established an experimental method for anti-fuel resistance measurement by applying synthetic spoiled gasoline by investigating the composition of spoiled gasoline and corrosion products in the fuel tank, which was collected in North America after 160,000 kilometers' running. Newly developed lead-free pre-coated steel sheet shows excellent anti-fuel corrosion resistance in comparison with that of usual terne coated steel sheet according to this method.
