Q

PREVENTION OF GALVANIC CORROSION

*CCSSUE**

A
  1. Cathodic protection - sacrificial metal - ZINC
  2. Choose relative surface area, anodic metal > cathodic metal
  3. Separate dissimilar metals w/ non-conducting material
  4. Separate metals from conductive environment
  5. Use of poorly conducting electrolytes (water w/ no impurities)
  6. Eliminate metallic ions - (hastens corrosion)
