AImract--Galvanostatic experiments have been made on iron electrodes in hydrogen-poor and hydrogen-saturated alkaline solutions at 20°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

✦ Synopsis
The potentiodynamic behaviour of iron in alkaline solutions under carefully controlled perturbation conditions reveals that the overall electrochemical process is more involved than was thought earlier. The electrochemical characteristics of the systems are explained through a series of successive conjugated redox coupks principally involving Fe(&), Fe(OH), gnd FeOOH as limiting stoichiometric species. The yield of soluble species such as either FeO:-or HFeO; increases with the pH. Ageing effects of reactants and products are also distinguished through the potentiodyoamic E/I records.

The anodic dissolution of indium amalgams in alkaline solutions follows a three-stage oxidation process, similar to the process in acidic solutions . The anodic films produced on indium amalgams are amorphous indium hydroxide . They are similar to anodic mercuric oxide and thallous chloride films i
## Abstract The behaviour of steels with (%) 17.3 Cr, 5.3 Ni, 0.3–13.9 Mn during potentiodynamic polarization k tests is comparable to that of 18 8 CrNi steels. Sharp peaks are found in the polarization curves; they correspond to the dissolution of the iron base: This region is followed by a passiv
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
