## In situ" laser Raman spectra of the corrosion films on iron have been observed in aerated 5 M KOH and 0.15 M NaCl solutions via surface enhancement by the electrodeposition of a silver overlayer. Essentially the same spectra are observed in the two solutions as a function of applied potential i

β¦ Synopsis
Cyclic voltammetry of iron in phosphate solutions of varying pH show mostly active dissolution in acid solutions of 0.1 M H,PO, and NaH,PO,; complete passivity is observed in alkaline 0.1 M Na,HPO, and Na,PO,. The composition of the corrosion film formed in the latter solutions was determined by laser Raman spectroscopy to consist mainly of Fe304 with PO:-incorporated into the lattice structure of the film. In acid 0.1 M NaH,PO,, multilayer film formation occurs. The main component of the film appears to be Fe~(PO.&.SH,O commonly known as vivianite. Several of the Raman spectra observed, however, remain as yet unassigned because they do not match those of known standard compounds. X-ray diffraction analyses indicate that the corresponding materials are highly disordered or amorphous.

The rate of dissolution of Armco Fe has been measured as a function of time for deaerated solutions of constant ionic strengtb (HCl + NaCl). For pH < 1.5, no appreciable change of the measured polarisation resistance was observed. For 1.5 -=I pH < 3 the polarisation resistance gave straight lines w
Surface-enhanced Raman (SER) spectroelectrochemical studies were carried out to identify the surface species formed on Co-Cr-Mo alloy under di β erent conditions. The surface Γlms identiΓed for the alloy in air include chromium(III) oxide, molybdate, molybdenum(VI) oxide and possibly cobalt(II) oxide
The formation and reduction of the passive film on iron was investigated in a phosphate-borate buffer solution. The passive film produced in the present solution was approximately 12% thicker than that produced in the borate-boric acid solution (pH 8.4). The formation ofthe passive film obeyed the m
