A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The elements of the corrosion cell are described and it is demonstrated that a great variety of half-cell reactions are possible whose single electrode potentials can be computed from thermodynamic constants and the composition of water. It is shown that only those half-cell reactions which produce the greatest electromotive force can occur. The method if identification of the half-cell reactions for a particular case is illustrated. It is shown that the theory can be used to great advantage in selecting water-treatment processes for corrosion control. The theory underlying the correct procedure for polarization tests is developed, and it becomes evident that all unknowns can be evaluated if the single electrode potentials are computed first.
