[0002] Electric water heater refers to the water heater that uses electricity as energy to heat up.It is one of the three major water heaters, along with gas water heater and solar water heater.Electric water heater can be divided into storage type (also known as volume type or heat storage type), instant type and fast heating type according to heating power.

[0003] In order to prevent the inner container of the electric water heater from being corroded and rusted, a carbon steel plate is usually used as the outer layer of the inner container (i.e., the carbon steel plate layer), and then an enamel coating is used to form the inner layer of the inner container (i.e., the enamel layer). The enamel layer directly contacts the water inside the inner container, which can prevent the water from contacting the carbon steel plate and causing the carbon steel plate layer to corrode and rust.

[0004] However, in the related anti-corrosion and anti-rust technology of electric water heaters, the thermal expansion and contraction of the inner container can cause the enamel layer to easily fall off, and the carbon steel plate layer of the inner container can be exposed to form a corrosion cell with other steel plates of the inner container that are perfectly coated with the enamel layer, which accelerates the corrosion of the exposed carbon steel plate layer and poses a safety hazard such as water leakage.
