anodic reaction
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
Electrode reaction equivalent to a transfer of positive charge from the electronic to the ionic conductor. An anodic reaction is an oxidation process. An example common in ...
electroplating
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
Electrodepositing a metal or alloy in an adherent form on an object serving as a cathode.
anodic cleaning
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
Electrolytic cleaning in which the work is the anode. Also called reverse-current cleaning.
cathodic cleaning
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
Electrolytic cleaning in which the work is the cathode.
cathodic pickling
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
Electrolytic pickling in which the work is the cathode.
temper embrittlement
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
Embrittlement of alloy steels caused by holding within or cooling slowly through a temperature range just below the transformation range. Embrittlement is the result of the ...
