Cathodic Protection Measurements

Cathodic protection is a kind of metal protection. As is known, most metal materials are subject to corrosion and corrosion if they come into contact with air and water. This is a great danger, especially for metal materials that are under the ground or in water. There are many methods of protection to avoid corrosion of these materials. One of them is cathodic protection method. In this method, in order to prevent corrosion, a more active metal is placed next to the metal materials in contact with them. This method is called galvanic method cathodic protection. Cathodic protection method is applied in many areas. Oil drill rigs are the most widely applied areas. In the meantime, cathodic protection is applied to prevent corrosion of the surfaces of the ships.

Essentially, the basic principle of this method is to make the metal material to be protected into a cathode of an electrochemical cell and to stop anodic reactions that are walking on the metal surface. The cathodic protection method, which was first applied in 1930 years, has shown great improvements in the following years. With the development of new high-performance anodes with technological advances, cathodic protection has become the most effective and economical method in the fight against corrosion.

Today, metals and metal alloys are used in many areas of the industry and great energy is spent to produce them. The most important factor that extends the service life of metals and alloys is corrosion protection. Corrosion is the degradation of metal materials by the environmental effect, the loss of their metallic properties and their use. This situation is also very important for the national economy. Because of corrosion, almost one quarter of the annual steel production is wasted every year. The main environmental factors that cause corrosion are weather, rainwater and sea water.

Corrosion of iron is popularly known as rusting, and this is the most dangerous dimension of corrosion of metals. The use of steel and iron is very common in many places because of its easy production and low cost. However, any damage at any point increases the corrosion rate in a short time.

Our company within the framework of electrical safety examinationsconducts cathodic protection measurements in accordance with relevant legal regulations, standards and test methods published by local and foreign organizations.
