प्रश्न
Write a note on sacrificial protection.
Advertisements
उत्तर
In this method, the metallic structure to be protected is made cathode by connecting it with more active metal (anodic metal). So that all the corrosion will concentrate only on the active metal. The artificially made anode thus gradually gets corroded protecting the original metallic structure. Hence this process is otherwise known as sacrificial anodic protection. Al, Zn and Mg are used as sacrificial anodes.
