Abstract:Metallic materials serving in the atmospheric environments are usually exposed to solar light illumination. The aim of this work is to determine how the visible light illumination affects the atmospheric corrosion of copper. The mass gains and mass losses after laboratory exposure at different conditions were obtained, and the corrosion morphologies, corrosion products and the electrochemical/photoelectrochemical properties of the corrosion products were analyzed in the present paper. The visible light illumin… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
