LEAD AND LEAD ALLOYS: Corrosion Resistance — Part 2

Abstract

As this three‐part article illustrates, the versatility of lead in preventing corrosion of other more prone materials seems to have few bounds. This second part considers lead as cable sheathing, piping and in cathodic protection applications. Its use in chemical plant cannot be overlooked and is also covered in this section. As with most other metals, adverse conditions, though relatively rare, can cause serious damage to the metal and whatever it may be protecting.
