Abstract

The invention relates to an aluminum alloy sacrificial anode used for a water storage type water heater. Aluminum serves as raw materials. The aluminum alloy sacrificial anode used for the water storage type water heater is prepared from, by weight, 0.5-2.8% of a zinc element and 0.1-0.5% of a tin element. Further, a bismuth element and / or a gallium element are / is added, and preferentially, the weight percent of bismuth is 0.1-0.3%, and the weight percent of gallium is 0.05-0.25%. The multi-element aluminum alloy sacrificial anode solves the problems that in the using process of a current magnesium alloy sacrificial anode material, the actual capacitance is low, the service life is short, water is polluted, and an aluminum alloy sacrificial anode is poor in universality, not stable in performance and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aluminum alloy sacrificial anodes, in particular to an aluminum alloy sacrificial anode for water storage water heaters. Background technique [0002] The inner tank of the water storage water heater and metal parts such as heating pipes and thermocouples inside the inner tank are prone to corrosion due to long-term immersion in water, especially once the inner tank is corroded and broken down, water will leak, which greatly reduces the safety factor of the water heater , the water heater is then scrapped. One of the key factors of the service life of the water heater is the service life of the inner tank, and the life of the inner tank mainly depends on the material, manufacturing process and cathodic protection. Cathodic protection often uses a metal with a higher activity than it to be connected to the metal liner as a sacrificial anode. According to the electrochemical principle, the potential of the...
