Explains the technique of cathodic protection in conjunction with the galvanic series of metals and cell action, plus the history and development of cathodic protection. Touches upon thermodynamic considerations, and uses polarization curves to explain the rates of corrosion reaction and how these rates can be reduced by application of cathodic protection. Several practical applications of this technique are described.
