| Abstract: | Thermodynamic-kinetic interpretation of the passivation phenomena with Fe? Cr alloys By superimposing two thermodynamic kinetic current output/potential curves corresponding to iron and chromium, respectively, it is possible to plot the selfpassivation curve for Fe-Cr alloys, which is similar to the potentiostatic polarisation curve. For the ideal Fe-Cr alloy, it is possible to draw conclusions concerning the Fe and Cr passivity zones and the composition of the oxide layers on the passivated Fe-Cr alloy at the Flade reference potential. |
