  2. Galvanic corrosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_corrosion

    Galvanized mild steel cable ladder with corrosion around stainless steel bolts. All metals can be classified into a galvanic series representing the electrical potential they develop in a given electrolyte against a standard reference electrode. The relative position of two metals on such a series gives a good indication of which metal is more ...

  3. Galvanization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanization

    These plaques can flake off, leading to visible impurities in water and a slight metallic taste. The life expectancy of galvanized piping is about 40–50 years, [12] but it may vary on how well the pipes were built and installed. Pipe longevity also depends on the thickness of zinc in the original galvanizing, which ranges on a scale from G01 ...

  4. Water damage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_damage

    Class of water damage is determined by the probable rate of evaporation based on the type of materials affected, or wet, in the room or space that was flooded. Determining the class of water damage is an important first step, and will determine the amount and type of equipment utilized to dry-down the structure. [7] Class 1 - Slow Rate of ...

  5. Hot-dip galvanization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-dip_galvanization

    Galvanised hand rail Crystalline surface of a hot-dip galvanized handrail, known as "spangle" Protective effect: completely rusted letter box mounted to a hot-dip galvanized wall Steel strip coming out of the zinc pot of a continuous vertical hot-dip galvanizing line. Hot-dip galvanization is a form of galvanization.

  6. Rust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust

    Rust is an iron oxide, a usually reddish-brown oxide formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the catalytic presence of water or air moisture.Rust consists of hydrous iron(III) oxides (Fe 2 O 3 ·nH 2 O) and iron(III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO(OH), Fe(OH) 3), and is typically associated with the corrosion of refined iron.

    Newly discovered damage in Glen Canyon Dam would require releasing less water at low reservoir levels — a problem that increases water risks in the Southwest.

  8. Cathodic protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathodic_protection

    A visual inspection of both galvanized and non-galvanized test panels showed a significant reduction in the appearance of rust compared to the control panels (not connected to the protection module), consistent with the observed cathodic shift in the electrochemical potential measurements obtained on the panels during the tests. [56]
