Abrtraet-Iron in the passive state in neutral boric-acid-borate solution was anodically oxidixed or cathodicagy reduced in the potential regions of passivity and oxygen evolution. It is shown that the potential of passivated iron is not a single-valued function of the surface tilm thickness but is c

The formation and reduction of the passive film on iron was investigated in a phosphate-borate buffer solution. The passive film produced in the present solution was approximately 12% thicker than that produced in the borate-boric acid solution (pH 8.4). The formation ofthe passive film obeyed the m
## Abstract The passivating oxide layer on iron grows by transfer of oxygen ions from the solution into the oxide. As expected theoretically, the dissolution rate of iron ions increases with the growth rate of the layer. In neutral solution the current efficiency for oxide growth is larger than in
Anodic oxide films were formed galvanostatically on zirconium in nitric and sulphuric acid solutions. The stability of the formed oxide films were investigated. The effects of formation voltage, formation current density and frequency on the dissolution behaviour of the formed oxide layers in both m
