Influence of microstructure in current draining efficiency in magnesium sacrificial anodes; Influencia de la microestructura en la eficiencia de drenado de corriente en anodos de sacrificio de magnesio

Abstract

In the last few years the efficiency of magnesium anodes used as cathodic protection of structures and metallic components, has presented outstanding variations. In spite of the fulfillment with the standard of chemicomposition, the working efficiency is low, existing the possibility that this be own to microstructural variations still not studied. For this reason, in the present work are shown some experiences with solidification of magnesium, in order to observe the influence of the structure of casting in the efficiency of current drain. For this purpose, pure magnesium (99.98%) was melt in graphite crucibles using protecting flux, pouring then in three different moulds: graphite, steel and aluminium, this last supplied with refrigeration using water as coolant up till now, the attained structures does not exert a determinant influence in the efficiency of magnesium anodes, and for this reason it is recommended to carry out thermomechanical treatments to continue with the study.
