What are some example of protecting?

Answer 1

sacrificial protection is when reduce the extent of corrosion of a metal in an electrolyte by coupling it to another metal that is electrochemically more active in the environment.

Answer 2

1: Magnesium alloy AZ91 was treated in accordance with the invention by the employing four steps as follows: (a) precleaning of the surface, preferably by glass bead honing; (b) anodizing the surface of the alloy; (c) applying a protective primer coat (e.g., a sacrificial double salt coating); and (d) applying the composite coating composition (also a sacrificial coating). If desirable, an overcoat of clear epoxy may be applied to the composite coating.

2: A part made of aluminum Alloy No. 3005 is treated by anodizing in a 15 percent sulfuric acid bath with aluminum as the anode at a current density of about 15 amps/sq.ft. at 15 volts for about 15 minutes. The anodized surface following washing and drying is coated with a primer coat of barium potassium chromate dispersed in a polyurethane resin on a 50:50 weight basis. The polyurethane resin is provided by blending reactive isocyanate prepolymers with hydroxyl-bearing resins. To the 50:50 blend of the double salt and the resin adhesive is added a thinner comprising xylol sufficient to enable the spraying of the mix. After spraying the primer coat on the anodized surface, it is cured by baking at about 150°F for 3 hours. Thereafter, a composite coating composition is applied comprising 4 pounds of said polyurethane resin mixed with 2 pounds of a finely divided alloy of 50% Ba and 50% Mg, sufficient thinner of toluol being added to enable spraying of the mix onto the primer surface. Following spraying, the coating is dried and cured at 200°F for one-half hour. The dried coating contains about 33 percent by weight of the sacrificial alloy.

3: Blocks of a more reactive metal (for example magnesium or zinc) are attached to the ship's hull or the under water pipe.

The magnesium or zinc can also be connected

to a pipeline or oil rig by conducting cables.

Examples of protecting include using strong passwords to secure online accounts, installing antivirus software on computers to prevent malware infections, and encrypting sensitive data to protect it from unauthorized access.
