Hot-dip galvanized steel sheets have been widely used in the building industry, owing to their excellent corrosion resistance. Since galvanized steel sheets typically undergo a heavy working, the ductility of the coating is also an important property. In hot-dip galvanized coating, a suitable forming pre-treatment will presumably improve workability by relaxing the strong basically oriented texture. The aim of the present study is to examine the microstructure, deformation behavior, and variation of preferential orientation during uniaxial deformation of a hot-dip galvanized coating with wire-brushing pre-treatment.
