The difference between tinned metal boxes and galvanized metal boxes

2024-07-09 10:38:54

There are significant differences between tin-plated metal boxes and galvanized metal boxes in many aspects, including the following aspects:


1. Surface treatment method

 Tin-plated metal box: Tin is electrolytically deposited on the surface of a metal substrate (such as iron) through electroplating. This treatment allows the tin coating to evenly cover the metal surface, forming a protective layer.
 Galvanized metal box: The same electroplating technology is used, but zinc is electrolytically deposited on the surface of the metal substrate. Zinc coatings also provide effective corrosion protection, but are different from tin coatings.

2. Corrosion resistance and aesthetics

 Tinned metal boxes: Tin coatings are generally more uniform, smoother, and more corrosion-resistant than zinc coatings. This characteristic makes tin-plated metal boxes widely used in industries that require high corrosion resistance and health and safety requirements, such as food packaging, containers, and printing plates. In addition, tin-plated metal boxes also have good aesthetics and high surface gloss, making them suitable for packaging high-end products.
 Galvanized metal box: Although zinc coating also has certain corrosion resistance, its corrosion resistance and aesthetics may be slightly inferior to tin coating. However, zinc coating has the advantage of being more cost-effective and is therefore widely used in industries that require anti-corrosion properties such as building materials, auto parts, and home appliances.

3. Surface characteristics and appearance

 Color and gloss: From the perspective of color and surface gloss, the surface color of the tin-plated metal box is similar to the color of a one-yuan coin. The surface is relatively delicate and has a high gloss. The surface of the galvanized metal box may be relatively rough, the color may have some sharp pattern spots, and the gloss is not as high as that of the tin-plated metal box.
 Touch and texture: Because the surface coating of the tin-plated metal box is even and smooth, the touch is more delicate and the texture is better. The galvanized metal box may be relatively rough to the touch.

4. Application scenarios and uses

 Tin-plated metal boxes: Due to their excellent corrosion resistance and aesthetics, tin-plated metal boxes are often used in food packaging (such as tinplate boxes), containers, printing plates and other fields. These fields have relatively high hygiene, safety and appearance requirements for products.
 Galvanized metal boxes: Galvanized metal boxes are more commonly used in industries that require anti-corrosion properties, such as building materials, auto parts, home appliances, etc. In these areas, the anti-corrosion performance of the product is the primary consideration.

To sum up, there are obvious differences between tin-plated metal boxes and galvanized metal boxes in terms of surface treatment methods, corrosion resistance and aesthetics, surface characteristics and appearance, as well as application scenarios and uses. When choosing which metal box to use, you need to make a choice based on specific needs and scenarios.
