โฆ Synopsis
The corrosion and passivation of tin in sodium borate (Na,B,O,) solutions at pH = 8.35 were studied by potentiodynamic and cyclic voltammetry techniques. The effect of the following factors on the anodic dissolution and passivation of tin metal are discussed: concentration of borate ion, pH, potential scan rate, successive cyclic voltammetry, switching potential and progressive additions of halide ions. The primary passivation is attained when the metal is covered with a film of Sn(OH), and/or SnO. Permanent passivity occurs when Sn(OH), and/or SnO, forms a continuous layer on the electrode surface. The anodic dissolution reactions are controlled by diffusion. In all experiments, the aggressive action of the halides decreased in the order Cl-> Br-. SEM examination confirms the occurrence of pitting corrosion in presence of halide ions. The pitting potential (E,,,) decreases with increasing halide concentration.

Passivation of spec-pure Sn was studied in aerated, unstirred solutions of acid sulphate (H2S04/Na2S04) and neutral suphate (Na2S04) using the potentiodynamic technique from an initial cathodic potential (-ve to open circuit potential) in the anodic direction and backwards to the initial potential.
