the main purpose of Electrolytic cleaning is to be remove in the lubricant oil and dirts left on the cold rolled strip before annealing.
To obtain the desired grain structure and to improve the mechanical properties, the strip is passed through the (continuous annealing line) furnace, heating, soaking and cooling sections.
In order to improve the mechanical properties, suppress yield point elongation strip shape correction to secure the flat shape, is to be obtain desired roughness, the steel sheet should be passed through a skin pass mill.
The equipment at the exit section are composed surface defect detector, Inspection table and oiler equipment. The products are inspected as well as judged systematically, and whether such products are appropriate to a client company or not.
The products are composed of various metal components and have various mechanical properties in accordance with design standard, depending on various sizes and uses, such as CQ,DQ, DDQ, EDDQ, Structural steel,HSS, AHSS and so forth.

Notes :
1. Flatness is measured on a flat table as side drawing. Flatness which is applicable to upper side of the steel is the value except thickness of the steel is the value from the maximum value of transformation.

| Dull Finish | Dull finish, which is attained by attaching numerous fine grains onto the steel surface, is often called 'pear-skin finish' or 'egg-shell texture'. The grains are made by electro discharge texturing machine. The dull finish is usefull in drawing because lubricant oil can be evenly spread over the entire surface, thereby reducing the possibility of friction. The fine grains also help to boost paint adherence and extend the steel life span of the steel. |

It is recommended that customers use product promptly to avoid the possibilities of rusting during storage or shipment Customer can choose kind of oil and quantity. Oiling improves corrosion resistance but cannot be the perfect way to protect steel from rust. Also, non-oiled and DOS oiled products are easy to rusting so, POSCO Maharashtra strongly recommends to apply general oil and use the product as soon as possible.
