...-aqueous and aqueous conditions at 25°C. A relatively wide passivation region (0-2.1 V) was clearly observed for mild steel, along with a lower corrosion rate, for both BAILs at 25°C. The Brønsted acidity of these BAILs is not proportional to the corrosion rate of the tested mild steel specimens...

... for passivation, ¹⁴ when the concentration of oxidized atoms at a liquid point near the corrosion front drops below a critical value (C_crit), the solid region in the horizon of that liquid point (if any) is passivated. This is done by assigning a permanent zero value...

...White rust formation can be heavily impacted by the water chemistry. Up until the 1960’s, galvanizing for manufacture of galvanized steel cooling towers and other cooling components included a post-fabrication hot dip process, where the post passivation typically utilizes chromates. The chromate...
