Economics of Phosphating

Can you give me an economic analysis of the advantages of phosphate coatings of steel?

 Q. Can you give me an economic analysis of the advantages of phosphate coatings of steel?      L.A.Z.

 
A. The direct answer to this question is “No, I can’t.” However, I can give you a reference to a good book that discusses these coatings in great technical detail:The Phosphating of Metals by Werner Rausch, ASM International, available on amazon.com. I also did some Googling on the subject and found a number of references that may be useful to you.
