The electrochemical cell developed in a steel connector, its anode material, and corrosion in the connector are to be explained.

Concept introduction:

  • Corrosion resistance is the ability of a material to withstand damages due to oxidation or chemical reaction.
  • Corrosion is a chemical reaction occurring due to the reaction with atmospheric moisture and oxygen resulting in the formation of oxides.
  • Alclad is a composite made of two sheets of aluminum of alloy 1100 and these sheets are sandwiched around 2024 aluminum alloy core.
  • Electroplating is a process of generating an electric current for the protective coating purpose.
  • An electrochemical cell is used for electroplating. It consists of an anode, cathode and an electrotype solution.
  • The flow of electrons through a separate path between the two metals produces a current.
