Bronze corrosion in aqueous chloride media

Written by sctunisie no comments

The electrochemical behaviour of bronze alloy (Cu10Sn) corrosion in aqueous chloride solution was studied by electrochemical polarization methods. Results showed that the surface’s compounds were mainly (hydroxide) oxides of tin and copper, incorporating very low amounts of chlorides. The variation of three experimental factors such as the sweep rate, the chloride concentration and the temperature allow us to deduce the activation thermodynamic parameters of this process.
