Abstract
Tin coatings Tin is used extensively because of its high resistance to corrosion in a large number of environments. The greatest use is for the production of tinplate, used in the packaging industry. A low‐carbon steel, in the form of strip or sheet, is given a thin coating of tin on both sides. Two methods are used commercially for producing tinplate—hot dipping and electrolytic plating.
