Pl. give me links about corrosion control and cathodic protection in?
The science of cathodic protection (CP) was born in 1824, when Sir Humphrey Davy made a presentation to the Royal Society of London: The rapid decay of the copper sheeting on His Majesty's ships of war, and the uncertainty of the time of its duration, have long attracted the attention of those persons most concerned in the naval interest of the count. . I entered into an experimental investigation upon copper. In pursuing this investigation, I have ascertained many facts . to illustrate some obscure parts of electrochemical science. seem to offer important application. Davy succeeded in protecting copper against corrosion from seawater by the use of iron anodes. From that beginning, CP has grown to have many uses in marine and underground structures, water storage tanks, gas pipelines, oil platform supports, and many other facilities exposed to a corrosive environment (see Corrosion Costs Study findings). Recently, it is proving to be an effective method for protecting reinforcing steel from chloride-induced corrosion. I hope these links help. Best of luck with it.
