Using an external DC power source to drive electrons into the metal, neutralizing the oxidation process. Conclusion
This is the part of the metal that actually corrodes. Here, oxidation occurs as metal atoms lose electrons and turn into ions (e.g., Principles and prevention of corrosion
Changing the chemistry of the surrounding medium can slow corrosion. Using an external DC power source to drive
Preventing corrosion involves breaking one of the four links in the corrosion cell. Strategies generally fall into four categories: 1. Material Selection and Design Principles and prevention of corrosion
A conductive medium (like water, moisture, or soil) that allows ions to move between the anode and cathode.
