Result of Evaluating Teats on Anode Performance of Various Zinc Alloys

Abstract

Three groups of zinc alloys were prepared, namely (1) binary alloys made by adding Hg, In, Ti, Sn, or Bi to extremely high-pure zinc, (2) ternary alloys made by adding Cd, Si, Mg, or Na to Zn-Al alloys of electrolytic zinc base, and (3) ternary alloys made by adding Si, Sn, Bi, or Mg to Zn-Al alloys of low grade (distilled) zinc base. With these samples, anodic potentials, current ef
