  2. Electrochemical machining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_machining

    Pressurized electrolyte is injected at a set temperature into the area being cut, at a feedrate equal to the rate of "liquefication" of the anode material. The gap between the tool and the workpiece varies within 80–800 micrometers (0.003–0.030 in.) [1] As electrons cross the gap between the tool and workpiece, material from the workpiece ...

  3. Plate electrode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_electrode

    A plate, usually called anode in Britain, is a type of electrode that forms part of a vacuum tube. [1] It is usually made of sheet metal, connected to a wire which passes through the glass envelope of the tube to a terminal in the base of the tube, where it is connected to the external circuit.

  4. 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 ...

  5. Electro-oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electro-oxidation

    Simple scheme of the apparatus for electro-oxidation process. The set-up for performing an electro-oxidation treatment consists of an electrochemical cell.An external electric potential difference (aka voltage) is applied to the electrodes, resulting in the formation of reactive species, namely hydroxyl radicals, in the proximity of the electrode surface. [11]

  6. Electrochemical cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_cell

    The protons flow from the anode to the cathode through the electrolyte after the reaction. At the same time, electrons are drawn from the anode to the cathode through an external circuit, producing direct current electricity. [citation needed] cathode At the cathode, another catalyst causes hydrogen ions, electrons, and oxygen to react, forming ...

  7. Cathodic protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathodic_protection

    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 electrochemical cell . [ 1 ]

  8. Galvanic anode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_anode

    A galvanic anode, or sacrificial anode, is the main component of a galvanic cathodic protection system used to protect buried or submerged metal structures from corrosion. They are made from a metal alloy with a more "active" voltage (more negative reduction potential / more positive oxidation potential ) than the metal of the structure.

  9. Magnesium battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_battery

    Magnesium secondary cell batteries are an active research topic as a possible replacement or improvement over lithium-ion–based battery chemistries in certain applications. A significant advantage of magnesium cells is their use of a solid magnesium anode, offering energy density higher than lithium batteries. Insertion-type anodes ...
