Atmospheric corrosion of iron under a single droplet: A new systematic multi-electrochemical approach

Utilizing a dedicated micro-sized three-electrode cell, this study systematically investigates early-stage electrochemical properties and corrosion behavior of pure iron under single droplets. Various volumes and NaCl concentrations were considered during the evaporation-driven shape and concentration evolution of single droplets. The...

Evaluation of the formation and protectiveness of a lithium-based conversion layer using electrochemical noise

The formation process of a lithium-based conversion layer on AA2024-T3 and its corrosion protective behavior are studied using electrochemical noise (EN). Wavelet transform, as well as noise resistance analysis, have been employed to interpret the EN data. The EN data confirmed five different stages during the conversion layer growth,...
