All different metals are dissimilar with respect to one another, but the degree of dissimilarity varies even between two types of steel. A system has been developed for ranking dissimilarity of …

When dissimilar metals are used together in the presence of an electrolyte, separate them with a dielectric material such as insulation, paint or similar surface coating. This slide includes a …

Example for which metal will corrode in contact with another dissimilar metallic material. Tin plating mitigates corrosion between galvanized steel and copper. Connecting bare copper to …

When design requires that dissimilar metals come in contact, galvanic compatibility can be managed by finishes and plating which protects the base materials from corrosion.

Below is a galvanic reaction chart for dissimilar metals. This chart is designed to assist in broadly assessing the risk of galvanic corrosion associated with a given metal coming into contact with …

Hence bi-metallic corrosion may be experienced when two dissimilar metals or alloys, not in direct contact are nevertheless connected electrically. Obviously bi-metallic corrosion is more severe …

When two dissimilar metals come into contact in the presence of an electrolyte, such as freshwater or seawater, galvanic corrosion occurs, leading to accelerated deterioration of one …
