A metal-coating process using electrical current to deposit a thin layer of zinc and iron alloy on steel for corrosion resistance.
From electro- + Sherardizing (a process named after Sherard Cowper-Coles). Combines electrochemistry with an older thermal diffusion process.
Electrosherardizing is an industrial upgrade to an already clever coating technique—it uses electricity to apply protective metal coatings faster and more uniformly than the original heat-based method, which is why it's used on things that need to last in harsh conditions.
