Study Notes
Corrosion Protection Methods
- Galvanization is a metal coating method that involves the application of a more reactive metal to protect the base metal from corrosion.
- Cathodic protection is a method of corrosion prevention that involves the use of an external power source to provide cathodic protection to the metal.
Types of Corrosion
- Fretting corrosion occurs at the interface between two surfaces in close contact with each other.
- The most common form of corrosion is uniform corrosion.
Corrosion Factors
- The factor that primarily influences the corrosion of metals is moisture.
Corrosion Processes
- Corrosion is the process of slowly deteriorating metal due to the attack of atmospheric gases on the surface of the metal.
- Rust is the most common compound formed during the corrosion of iron.
Other Methods
- Sacrificial protection is a method of corrosion prevention that involves applying a more reactive metal to protect the base metal.
