摘要
The limiting length of tunnels, llim, of Al foil electro-etched in HCl-H2SO4 solution and the corresponding anodic polarization curves in the same solution were measured. It is found that there is a dependence of llim on the potential difference, △φ, between the pitting potential, φpit, and the corrosion potential, φcorr, of Al foil, when the temperature and H2SO4 concentration of HCl-H2SO4 electrolyte are changed. The dynamic equation on the tunnel growing and the linear equation between llim and △φ were deduced by analyzing the relationship among the over-potential on Al foil surface, the transport over-potential in tunnel solution and the over-potential at tunnel tip during the electro-etching. The results show that the growing velocity of tunnels decreases with their extending in length and the changing trend of llim can be judged by measuring △φ, which supplies a convenient access to explore new kinds of etchants.
The limiting length of tunnels, llim, of Al foil electro-etched in HCl-H2SO4 solution and the corresponding anodic polarization curves in the same solution were measured. It is found that there is a dependence of llim on the potential difference, Δφ, between the pitting potential, φpit, and the corrosion potential, φcorr, of Al foil, when the temperature and H2SO4 concentration of HCl-H2SO4 electrolyte are changed. The dynamic equation on the tunnel growing and the linear equation between/lira and Δφ were deduced by analyzing the relationship among the over-potential on Al foil surface, the transport over-potential in tunnel solution and the over-potential at tunnel tip during the electro-etching. The results show that the growing velocity of tunnels decreases with their extending in length and the changing trend of/lim can be judged by measuring Δφ, which supplies a convenient access to explore new kinds of etchants.
