Abstract:Indium-activated aluminum anodes have been selected as potential candidates to replace current military specification (MIL-A-18001J) zinc anodes for the cathodic protection of Navy ships. One concern regarding the use of indium-activated anodes is the anode performance in cold (40°F) seawater. The subject paper presents the results of a small-scale laboratory screening test investigating this possibility.
Four indium-activated anodes were immersed in individual seawater-filled bare steel tank… Show more
