Characterization of Passive Films Using Infrared and Raman Spectroscopy

Abstract

This report discusses research using infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopy as the primary investigative tools to study passive film formation. Equipment adapted for this purpose is described. Results of studies on lead and iron are presented. The results are analyzed by comparison with thermodynamic data. A tentative new version of Pourbaix's potential -pH diagram for lead in nil-chloride aqueous solutions is presented.
