Abstract:Experimental current-potential curves corrected from the contribution due to the medium oxidation are used to propose a dissolution-passivation model of the nickel base alloy C-276. This model is controlled by the major presence of nickel and shows a reaction chain mechanism with a bifurcation and two competitive determinant branches for the setup of the protection of the alloy. Considering a Langmuir-type adsorption, we formulate a current-potential law which leads, via a mathematical optimization calculation… Show more
