  • Method of sacrificial anode dual transistor-driving in stray current field

    In order to control a magnesium anode in a stray current interference field, a dual transistor driving system has been proposed. It consisted of a combination of PNP and NPN transistors. Dual transistor driven system and direct anode to cathode connection were electrochemically tested in 3% NaCl solution. The dual transistor driven system increased the anode efficiency and reduced hydrogen evolution and the risk of embrittlement....
