Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

Introduction
The chromium(VI) free systems differ in 2 points from the chromium(VI)-containing systems:
a) there is no self-healing of the system;
b) higher temperature resistance (> 150 °C), the limit for chromium(VI) containing systems, is ≤ 70 °C.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 19598:2016(E)
Metallic coatings — Electroplated coatings of zinc and zinc
alloys on iron or steel with supplementary Cr(VI)-free
treatment
1 Scope
This International Standard applies to electrodeposited zinc and zinc-alloy coatings on iron and
steel with Cr(VI)-free passivation. The zinc-alloy coatings contain nickel or iron as alloying elements
(referred to as zinc/nickel and zinc/iron coatings, respectively).
The main purpose of the coatings or coating systems is protecting iron and steel components against
corrosion.
This International Standard specifies
— the designations to be used for the above coating systems,
— the minimum corrosion resistance to be achieved in specified test procedures, and
— the minimum coating thicknesses required.
2 Normative references

indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

4 Designation
4.1 Electrodeposited coatings
The electrodeposited coatings shall be composed of zinc or zinc-alloys as listed in Table 1.
Table 1 — Designation of electrodeposited coatings
Symbol Definition
Zn Zinc coating without alloying element
ZnFe Zinc-alloy containing a mass fraction of 0,3 % to 1,0 % iron
ZnNi Zinc-alloy containing a mass fraction of 12 % to 16 % nickel
4.2 Passivation
Passivation is the production of conversion coatings by treating coatings with suitable Cr(VI)-free
solutions in order to improve their corrosion resistance. The conversion coating may optionally be dyed.
Since the Cr(VI)-free passivations are new coating systems, the new nomenclature is listed in Table 2.

Tints are permissible.
4.3 Post treatment
Application of a sealant or top coats increases corrosion resistance.
Sealant layers normally show a thickness of up to 2 µm and are composed of Cr(VI)-free organic and/or
inorganic compounds. Coatings that can be removed with cold cleaning agents, such as those with an
oil, grease or wax base, are not considered as sealants in the context of this International Standard.
Top coats are normally thicker than 2 µm and are Cr(VI)-free organic thin coatings which may need
elevated temperature curing. Particularly for coatings with black passivation, a postdip can be used for
increasing corrosion resistance and improving colour depth.
The impact of the post treatments mentioned to component properties such as contact resistance,
weldability, compatibility with fuels, performance in bonded joints, etc., when in service shall be
