Corrosion of metals Corrosion. Rusting can be prevented by keeping oxygen and water away, and by sacrificial protection. An alloy is a mixture of elements, including at least one metal.

Corrosion is a chemical reaction to which even the strongest structures fall victim. Metals such as steel react with oxygen and water, going on to rust and decay. Cathodic protection plays a key role ...

Galvanisation is the process of zinc-plating other metals to protect them from corrosion. Metal sculptures are shown being cleaned in an acid bath then dipped in a bath of molten zinc.
