  2. Cathodic protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathodic_protection

    Cathodic protection (CP; / kæˈθɒdɪk / ⓘ) is a technique used to control the corrosion of a metal surface by making it the cathode of an electrochemical cell. [1] A simple method of protection connects the metal to be protected to a more easily corroded "sacrificial metal" to act as the anode. The sacrificial metal then corrodes instead ...

    Galvanic anode. The bright rectangular objects on these ship components are galvanic anodes. 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 ...
