English to French: Zinc Flake - Zinc lamellaire
Source text - English The Zinc Flake Coating was developed to give an improved corrosion resistant coating compared to electro plated zinc and also give other advantages especially when applied to small parts and in particular fasteners. The coatings consist predominantly of zinc flakes, in some cases mixed with a small proportion of aluminium flakes. It is important in the formulation of these materials to use flakes and not zinc powder or dust, as the presence of the flakes with the correct drying and curing procedure allow a dense coating to be formed with the flakes lying parallel to the substrate surface which greatly improves the protective performance of the coating. The flakes are bound together using a matrix that can be organic or inorganic, this varies with the particular materials used. The coatings are conductive so are sacrificial to steel. They are often used with a top coat that can improve corrosion and give barrier protection, but in this case the total coating may not be conductive.
Translation - French Le revêtement de zinc lamellaire a été élaboré pour offrir une résistance accrue à la corrosion par rapport au revêtement électrozingué conventionnel, ainsi que d'autres avantages pour la fabrication des petits composants, et notamment, les pièces de fixation. Il se compose principalement de lamelles de zinc, combinées dans certains cas avec une petite proportion de lamelles d'aluminium. L'utilisation de lamelles de zinc et non de poussière, ni poudre de zinc dans la formulation de ce matériau est primordiale, car la présence de lamelles permet d'obtenir un revêtement extrêmement dense. Leur structuration parallèlement à la surface du substrat lors du séchage et de la cuisson améliore sensiblement la protection offerte par le revêtement. Les lamelles peuvent être liées par une matrice organique ou inorganique en fonction des matériaux spécifiques utilisés. Hautement conducteurs, ces revêtements offrent une protection cathodique sacrificielle pour l'acier. Ils sont souvent doublés d'une couche de finition renforçant la tenue à la corrosion ainsi que l'effet barrière, auquel cas le revêtement finalement obtenu peut ne plus être conducteur.
