- Rust protection is accomplished through galvanizing.
- Zinc is applied in a thin coating to the iron or steel item.
- The zinc functions as a sacrificial metal, preventing oxygen and water from accessing the metal beneath.
- Because zinc is more reactive than iron, it oxidizes faster than iron.
- Galvanization is the process of covering iron with a protective zinc coating to prevent corrosion.
- Iron is protected from rusting by the zinc coating, which prevents it from coming into contact with air and moisture.
