Book Developing Oil immersed Scanning Electrochemical Cell Microscopy for Corrosion

Download or read book Developing Oil immersed Scanning Electrochemical Cell Microscopy for Corrosion written by Yuanjiao Li and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Localized corrosion often initiates at the microscale due to surface microstructural features, which are hard to study using conventional macroscopic techniques. Scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM) is one of the most recently developed electrochemical scanning techniques which allows surface electrochemical measurements with a high spatial resolution by scanning a droplet cell. It can correlate corrosion-related electrochemical phenomena to surface microstructural features. However, the droplet evaporation limits the application of SECCM, especially when using NaCl electrolytes for corrosion testing. To solve this problem, we developed an oil-immersed SECCM (OI-SECCM) (Chapter 2) by immersing the droplet under a layer of hydrophobic and electrochemically inert oil on the substrate surface. The droplet creates a stable electrochemical cell, allowing long-lasting surface scanning regardless of ambient humidity.This thesis presents the OI-SECCM measurements on Al alloy AA7075-T73, analyzing the microscopic corrosion behaviors associated with microstructural features, including intermetallics (Chapter 2), grain orientations, and boundaries (Chapter 5). To understand the variations in OI-SECCM measurements, this thesis also elucidated the effects of the non-isolated Ag/AgCl quasi-reference electrode (Chapter 3) and droplet landing process (Chapter 4) on the measured corrosion potentials in open circuit potential and potentiodynamic polarization. Through the optimization and interpretation of OI-SECCM measurements for corrosion, this thesis is expected to facilitate the application of SECCM in the field of corrosion, thereby promoting the understanding of corrosion mechanisms at the microscale"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electrochemistry plays a key role in a broad range of research and applied areas including the exploration of new inorganic and organic compounds, biochemical and biological systems, corrosion, energy applications involving fuel cells and solar cells, and nanoscale investigations. The Handbook of Electrochemistry serves as a source of electrochemical information, providing details of experimental considerations, representative calculations, and illustrations of the possibilities available in electrochemical experimentation. The book is divided into five parts: Fundamentals, Laboratory Practical, Techniques, Applications, and Data. The first section covers the fundamentals of electrochemistry which are essential for everyone working in the field, presenting an overview of electrochemical conventions, terminology, fundamental equations, and electrochemical cells, experiments, literature, textbooks, and specialized books. Part 2 focuses on the different laboratory aspects of electrochemistry which is followed by a review of the various electrochemical techniques ranging from classical experiments to scanning electrochemical microscopy, electrogenerated chemiluminesence and spectroelectrochemistry. Applications of electrochemistry include electrode kinetic determinations, unique aspects of metal deposition, and electrochemistry in small places and at novel interfaces and these are detailed in Part 4.

Book Lectures on Electrochemical Corrosion

Download or read book Lectures on Electrochemical Corrosion written by Marcel Pourbaix and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Workers in the field of corrosion and their students are most fortunate that a happy set of circumstances brought Dr. Marcel Pourbaix into their field in 1949. First, he was invited, while in the USA, to demonstrate at a two week visit to the National Bureau of Standards the usefulness of his electro chemical concepts to the study of corrosion. Secondly, also around the same time, Prof. H. H. Uhlig made a speech before the United Nations which pointed out the tremendous economic consequences of corrosion. Because of these circumstances, Dr. Pourbaix has reminisced, he chose to devote most of his efforts to corrosion rather than to electrolysis, batteries, geology, or any of the other fields where, one might add, they were equally valuable. This decision resulted in his establishing CEBELCOR (Centre BeIge d'Etude de la Corrosion) and in his development of a course at the Free University of Brussels entitled "Lectures on Electrochemical Corrosion." This book is the collection of these lectures translated into English.

Book Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy
