Electroplating Galvanization
1) The process of coating iron objects with metals that do not corrode is called electroplating. 1) The process of coating iron objects with a thin layer of zinc metal is known as galvanization.
2) Metals like tin, nickel and chromium are used for electroplating. 2) Zinc metal is used for galvanization as it is a corrosion-resistant metal.
