Corrosion characterization of new tin–silver binary alloys in nitric acid solutions

Electrochemical behavior of magnesium alloys as biodegradable materials in Hank's solution

“…3, consists of two circuits in series from R 1 C 1 and R 2 C 2 parallel combination and the two are in series with R s . In this way C 1 is related to contribution from the capacitance of the outer layer and the faradaic reaction therein and C 2 pertains to the inner layer, while R 1 and R 2 are the respective resistances of the outer and inner layers constituting the surface film, respectively [28,29]. Analysis of the experimental spectra was made by best fitting to the corresponding equivalent circuit using Thales software provided with the workstation where the dispersion formula suitable to each model was used [30].…”

Electrochemical corrosion behavior of magnesium and titanium alloys in simulated body fluid

“…On the other hand, for the impedance diagrams with two time constants the appropriate equivalent model consists of two circuits in series from R 1 C 1 and R 2 C 2 parallel combination and the two are in series with R s . In this way C 1 is related to contribution from the capacitance of the outer layer and the faradaic reaction therein and C 2 pertains to the inner layer, while R 1 and R 2 are the respective resistances of the outer and inner layers constituting the surface film, respectively [10,11]. Analysis of the experimental spectra was made by best fitting to the corresponding equivalent circuit using Thales software provided with the workstation where the dispersion formula suitable to each model was used [12].…”

Investigation of anodic dissolution behaviour of intermetallic compound in Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu solder alloy by cyclic voltammetry

“…It is believed that this potential refers to dissolution potential of either Ag 3 Sn or Cu 6 Sn 5 IMC based on two reasons: These two IMCs are the only phases that remains in sample after CA characterization at −0.35 V as discussed previously (Section 2.3). This potential is higher than dissolution potential of Sn, and lower than the dissolution potential of Ag and Cu. It is a common observation that the dissolution potential of IMC would lie in between the dissolution potential of its constituent metals (Tsao and Chen, 2012; Heakal et al , 2008). …”
