Popis: | Iron artificial pits have been used in this work to investigate the effect of a carbon-based black layer that can form within a pit during iron dissolution in HCl solutions. Commercial purity iron (99.5%) and high purity iron (99.99+%) have been compared, and a black layer has been observed only in the 99.5% iron pit. It has been found that the formation of a black layer within an iron artificial pit is potential dependent: it can form at applied voltages below 0.2 V(SCE), but not at 0.6 V(SCE). The presence of a black layer can decrease the rate of mass transport inside a pit, which may help to maintain the aggressive acidic solution in an active pit. This effect has been characterised quantitatively via potentiostatic and potential step methods. In addition, the black layer has also been found to induce a small extra resistance in the solution. |
