Electroplating is used to coat certain metals with a thin layer of industries for coating metal objects with a thin layer of a different metal. This electrochemical of a pure metal, like silver or gold, copper, zinc or any of several alloys. During the process, an electric current passes through a solution known as an electrolyte. The composition of the electrolyte depends on the desired coating. The item being electroplated (cathode) is immersed into the electrolyte solution, as is the plating / coating anode. [More]

Cathodic protection system is a technique used to control a corrosion of a metal surface by making it the cathodic side of an electrochemical cell. Cathodic protection is an old and effective system that prevents forming rust in metal and helps in corrosion resistant. [More]
