Summary
-
1.
An investigation was made of the stationary electrode potentials, the protective currents, the anodic polarizabilities, and the stability in use of six aluminum-zinc alloys together with pure aluminum and zinc.
-
2.
It was shown that protector blocks of alloys containing 30–70% of zinc are more efficient than protector blocks made of pure aluminum or zinc or alloys of zinc content 0–30% and 70–100%.
