β¦ Synopsis
The kinetics of the potentiodynamic formation and reduction of silver sulfide films on a silver rotating disc electrode in aqueous sulfide solutions were investigated . Due to the inherently fast reaction between silver and the HS -species, the physical processes of migration and diffusion of ions in solution were frequently rate limiting, Only when the rate of HS -transport in solution was very high, did the rate of film growth become limited by the solid-state electromigration of silver ions through the silver sulfide film. By utilizing the low field approximation for field-assisted electromigration, the ionic conductivity of these films was found to be 5.9 x 10 -4 S ran -1 . Silver sulfide film reduction occurred by the injection of electrons into the film to the film/electrolyte interface . All of the results have been supported by scanning electron microscope investigations .
