Abstract:Purpose
The purpose of this study is to investigate cathodic protection (CP) efficiency in the tidal zone and its associated processes.
Design/methodology/approach
Specific features of CP in the tidal zone, that is, persistence of a thin seawater film and insufficient cathodic potential due to ohmic drop, were addressed. In this preliminary study, carbon steel electrodes were polarized at two cathodic potentials (correct or insufficient protection) while immersed in 1 mm or 5 mm thick natural seawater layers… Show more
