Galvanic and thermolysis are often combined in a method known as blend, developed by Arthur Hinkel in 1948, which uses both RF and direct current, combining many of the advantages of galvanic and thermolysis.

In contrast, a battery or Galvanic cell, converts chemical energy into electrical energy, by using spontaneous chemical reactions that take place at the electrodes.

( Galvanic cells can also be made by connecting two half-cells, each with its own electrode and electrolyte, by an ion-transporting " bridge ," usually a salt bridge ; these cells are more complex.

In 1827, the German scientist Georg Ohm expressed his law in this famous book " Die galvanische Kette, mathematisch bearbeitet " ( The Galvanic Circuit Investigated Mathematically ) in which he gave his complete theory of electricity.

Galvanic corrosion is often utilized in sacrificial anodes.

A Galvanic cell, or Voltaic cell, named after Luigi Galvani, or Alessandro Volta respectively, is an electrochemical cell that derives electrical energy from spontaneous redox reaction taking place within the cell.

In common usage, the word " battery " has come to include a single Galvanic cell, but a battery properly consists of multiple cells.

A Galvanic cell consists of two half-cells.

The voltage of the Galvanic cell is the sum of the voltages of the two half-cells.

Galvanic cells are typically used as a source of electrical power.

Galvanic sacrificial anode attached to the hull of a ship, showing corrosion.

Galvanic or sacrificial anodes are made in various shapes and sizes using alloys of zinc, magnesium and aluminium.
