2. Galvanic anode - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_anode

   The arrangement of the anodes is then planned so as to provide an even distribution of current over the whole structure. For example, if a particular design shows that a pipeline 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) long needs 10 anodes, then approximately one anode per kilometre would be more effective than putting all 10 anodes at one end or in the centre.

   Aluminum sacrificial anodes (light colored rectangular bars) mounted on a steel jacket structure. Zinc sacrificial anode (rounded object) screwed to the underside of the hull of a small boat. Cathodic protection ( CP ; / k æ ˈ θ ɒ d ɪ k / ⓘ ) is a technique used to control the corrosion of a metal surface by making it the cathode of an ...

4. Electrogalvanization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrogalvanization

   Electrogalvanizing is a process in which a layer of zinc is bonded to steel in order to protect against corrosion.The process involves electroplating, running a current of electricity through a saline/zinc solution with a zinc anode and steel conductor.

5. Anode - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anode

   The terms anode and cathode are not defined by the voltage polarity of electrodes, but are usually defined by the direction of current through the electrode. An anode usually is the electrode of a device through which conventional current (positive charge) flows into the device from an external circuit, while a cathode usually is the electrode through which conventional current flows out of ...

6. Sacrificial metal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacrificial_metal

   Sacrificial metals are widely used to prevent other metals from corroding: for example in galvanised steel. [3] Many steel objects are coated with a layer of zinc, which is more electronegative than iron, and thus oxidises in preference to the iron, preventing the iron from rusting. [4]
