The industrial standards for the composition, electrochemical performance and related testings of the sacrificial anodes have not been established in this country. Regarding the component analysis, Al and Zn anodes have been chosen as the test samples by means of a series of instrumental analysis, e.g., AA, AE, colorimetry and ICP.A number of methods have been applied including Al anode as the test sample in artificial and natural seawater and 3%NaCl solution according to JSCE experimental method. The results obtained are valuable and can thus be concluded that product specilications and testing procedures of the anode materials should be standardized and the efforts should be made towards a better cathodic protection design with safety.
