The cathodic protection uses two-electrode polarization, which requires large currents and substantial voltages. Efforts are being made to identify possibilities for improvements by developing zero-charge corrosion protection techniques. Studies were performed to determine the zero-charges potential effect by analyzing corrosion signs on reactive metal samples such as pure Mg. Mg samples were fed by current/voltage pulses for 120 hours, with specified pulse parameters and varied Ecorr- offsets, ranging from +2 to -218 mV. The volumetric hydrogen gas collection technique is used to determine the hydrogen evolution rate. Surface observation is carried out by stereomicroscope to determine the presence of corrosion signs on the sample surface. Overall, all current densities and hydrogen evolution rates had very low readings on the studied Ecor offset parameters. Mg samples fed with pulses at -1800 and -1900 mV vs SCE revealed zero charge potential effects since their surface was clean and showed no indications of corrosion even after being exposed to the corrosive solution for 120 hours. Thus, corrosion protection is successfully done and meets the Epzc condition.
