The results reveal that the anodic behaviors and reaction kinetics of the two anodes vary a lot during the anodic polarization which indicate the formation and stabilization of anodic layer. Compared with conventional Pb-0.8%Ag anode, A1/Pb-0.8%Ag anode has longer time of anodic polarization. At the very beginning of anodic polarization, the two anodes all exhibit higher potential of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) since the reaction is controlled by the transformation step of intermediates. Then, its OER potential is largely diminished and OER rate is deduced from the formation and adsorption of the first intermediate (S-OHms). In the prolonged anodie polarization, the anodie potential of A1/Pb-0.8%Ag gradually decreases and the final value is more stable than that of conventional Pb-0.8%Ag anode. On the anodic layer after 24 h of anodic polarization, the OER potential is controlled by the formation and adsorption of intermediate. The microstructures of A1/Pb-0.8%Ag and Pb-0.8%Ag anodes after 24 h of anodie polarization were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM).展开更多

The electrochemical behavior of Al-Zn-Si-RE coating in 3.5%NaCl solution was systematically studied by potentiodynamic polarization, corrosion potential (φcor ) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques (EIS). The impedance data were fitted to appropriate equivalent circuits to explain the different electrochemical processes occurring at the electrode-electrolyte interface. The results indicate that Al-Zn-Si-RE coating reveals the similar polarization behavior as Zn-15Al coating. The coating has no passive region in the anodic polarization, but far lower corrosion current and much higher corrosion potential. Al-Zn-Si-RE coating provides effective sacrificial protection for steel substrate and the sacrificial anodic protection plays dominant role during the immersion process. In addition, theφcor evolution and EIS plots indicate that the corrosion process can be divided into five stages: pitting-dissolution-redeposition, activation corrosion, cathodic protection, physical barriers and the coating failure.展开更多
