Abstract
An assessment of performance of zinc anodes on the cathodic protection of mild steel in 0.5 M hydrochloric acid was made at both the room and elevated temperatures. The cathodic protection reactions process was evaluated by weight-loss method, corrosion rate calculation and potential measurement methods. The effectiveness of zinc sacrificial an- odes were found to be cathodically protective on mild steel in the hydrochloric acid at both the room temperature (27 °C) and elevated temperature (60 °C). There was close correlation of the results obtained for the weight-loss method and potential measurement in the HCL.
