THE USE OF RADIOACTIVE INDICATORS IN STUDYING THE INHIBITION OF CORROSION CAUSED BY A CURRENT SUPERIMPOSED FROM THE OUTSIDE
Abstract
A sufficiently complete theory of the protective potential still does not exist. How, experimental data given for Zn attest that the protective action of current superimposed from the outside is undoubtedly related to the creation of a barrier, which retains the ions of Zn in a double electr c layer. The process of self-dissolving of the metal damps at the same time. In this case, the precipitation of H on the Zn cathode cannot be explained by the corrosion of the metal already settled on the cathode. The generation of gas is the primary electrode reaction, i.e., it depends only on the rate of interaction of the ions of H with the electrons.
