AImract--Galvanostatic experiments have been made on iron electrodes in hydrogen-poor and hydrogen-saturated alkaline solutions at 20Β°C. Emphasis was on the active behaviour of iron, but attention was also paid to its passivation. The mechanism of the anodic dissolution of active iron is found to b

Current transients have been measured for silver electrodes discontinuously scratched under potential control while immersed in 1 M KOH solutions. Formation of two distinct types of oxidised monolayer occurs in different potential ranges below the Ag-Ag,O reversible potential. Formation of the first
When an oxide-free tin surface is anodically polarized in deaerated 0.1 M sodium borate at a c.d. of about 6 #A/cm ~ the potential of the tin remains constant at first at --0-85 V vs. Ag/AgCI. Half the current is used for oxide formation and half for tin dissolution. This process continues even when
Al~traet--Two main views are found in the literature regarding the type of oxide formed on copper anodes in alkaline solutions. The one considers that copper oxidizes to Cu~O and CuO (or Cu(OH),) before oxygen evolution. Mftller is, however, of the opinion that a still higher oxide, Cu~O,, forms. Th
