Corrosion of steel structures in electric transmission, distribution, and substation applications has been around for many years, but it’s getting more attention as electric utilities become more ...

During the 2005 National Electrical Code (NEC) review cycle, a relatively simple revision was made that created a significant change on the cathodic protection (CP) systems of petroleum and chemical ...

Photoelectrochemical cathodic protection (PECCP) is an advanced strategy employing semiconductor materials to generate electrons under illumination, thereby offering a sustainable method to mitigate ...

Various methods are available to protect steel from corrosion. One of the most elegant of these is the use of zinc. Zinc lies below steel in the galvanic series and therefore will corrode ...

The service life of marine steel structures is significantly impacted by metal corrosion. The conventional cathodic protection method requires a significant amount of energy and metal resources.

While traditional methods like painting and hot-dip galvanization have been widely adopted, the persistent pursuit of innovation has driven the development of advanced surface treatment technologies.
