Flow Effects Upon the Repassivation of Iron and Cobalt in Neutral and Acidic Solutions
Abstract
dc:descriptionIn order to determine the mechanism by which metal reforms a protective oxide layer after removal though erosion or other mechanical means, experiments were performed in a specially designed flow cell. Particle impaction and subsequent depassivation were simulated through amperometric reduction of the oxide layer. Repassivation of iron, cold rolled steel, and cobalt in neutral and acidic aqueous sulfate solutions was investigated by observing electrochemical current and potential transients under controlled variation of parameters.
