Definitions
- Referring to the process of coating iron or steel with zinc to prevent rusting. - Describing the act of stimulating or exciting someone into taking action. - Talking about the process of electrifying a metal object by passing an electric current through it.
- Referring to the act of protecting something from damage or decay. - Talking about the process of maintaining the original condition of something. - Describing the act of keeping something in its current state without any changes.
List of Similarities
- 1Both involve protecting something from damage or decay.
- 2Both can be used to maintain the original condition of something.
- 3Both require some form of action to be taken to achieve their goal.
What is the difference?
- 1Purpose: Galvanisation is primarily used to prevent rusting, while preservation can be used for a wider range of purposes, such as protecting from physical damage or maintaining freshness.
- 2Materials: Galvanisation is typically used for metals, while preservation can be used for a variety of materials, such as food, documents, or buildings.
- 3Process: Galvanisation involves coating metal with zinc, while preservation can involve various methods, such as refrigeration, sealing, or restoration.
- 4Scope: Galvanisation is often used for industrial or construction purposes, while preservation can be used in various fields, such as art, history, or food industry.
- 5Outcome: Galvanisation results in a metal object that is more resistant to corrosion, while preservation results in an object that is protected from damage or decay and maintained in its original condition.
Remember this!
Galvanisation and preservation are both processes that involve protecting something from damage or decay. However, galvanisation is primarily used for metals and involves coating them with zinc to prevent rusting, while preservation can be used for a wider range of materials and involves various methods to maintain the original condition of the object.
