  2. Battery leakage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_leakage

    Battery leakage is the escape of chemicals, such as electrolytes, within an electric battery due to generation of pathways to the outside environment caused by factory or design defects, excessive gas generation, or physical damage to the battery.

  3. Cathodic protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathodic_protection

    The results achieved by both these electronic corrosion inhibitor devices point to the need for further research and testing in order to better understand how these devices are able to generate a shift in the potential of the metal panels, i.e., a cathodic effect, in the absence of a continuous electrolytic path required to close the electrical ...

    Severe PCB corrosion from a leaky PCB mounted Ni-Cd battery. Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are vulnerable to environmental influences; for example, the traces are corrosion-prone and may be improperly etched leaving partial shorts, while the vias may be insufficiently plated through or filled with solder. The traces may crack under mechanical ...

  5. Galvanic corrosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_corrosion

    Galvanic corrosion (also called bimetallic corrosion or dissimilar metal corrosion) is an electrochemical process in which one metal corrodes preferentially when it is in electrical contact with another, in the presence of an electrolyte.

  8. Automotive battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_battery

    An automotive battery, or car battery, is a rechargeable battery that is used to start a motor vehicle. Its main purpose is to provide an electric current to the electric-powered starting motor , which in turn starts the chemically-powered internal combustion engine that actually propels the vehicle.

  9. Corrosion monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrosion_monitoring

    Corrosion monitoring is the use of a corrator (corrosion meter) or set of methods [1] and equipment to provide offline or online information about corrosion rate expressed in mpy (mill per year). [ 2 ] - for better care and to take or improve preventive measures to combat and protect against corrosion .
