The title subject is studied by galvanostatic E-t curves on 20 h stabilized passive tin electrodes in weakly alkaline phosphate solution (pH9.5) at 25°C. These curves generally exhibit a small initial superpolarization ascribed to transient changes in the surface density of kinks (s) by the current
## Fluoride ion used either in the surface preparation or in the subsequent anodising of zirconium has a profound effect upon the stresses in the zirconium oxide anodic layer. By a suitable choice of surface preparation, anodising electrolyte, and growth rate, anodic oxide films can be grown on th
