Although there are several metals that could be used to galvanize steel zinc has properties that make it the best choice by far. Zinc is a natural element and is essential for healthy human life. Zinc is included in vitamins, used in the prevention of sun burn, used to promote healing of wounds and minimizing diaper rash. Zinc is also 100% recyclable without any loss of characteristics or elemental change. Zinc also acts as an anode to steel electrochemically meaning the zinc will sacrifice itself to prevent corrosion of steel.
