✦ Synopsis
Steady state potentiostatic experiments on a galena rotating-disc electrode in perchlorate solutions of varying pH values indicated that the primary reaction governing the anodic dissolution is PbS + Pbz + + S + 2e. A mechanism involving a sulphur intermediate is proposed for this process. Cyclicvoltammetric studies with the use of rotating ring-disc electrodes in perchlorate and sulphate solutions revealed that the pH value at the electrode surface has a marked elkt on the anodic dissolution. The morphology of the anodically produced sulphur has a bearing on the active-passive behaviour oCgalcna. The smxies responsible for the uassivation of the aalena surface in sutphate and perchlorare solutions are shown to be the basic lead sulphates.
