Abstract

"The increased demand for protective coatings on metals and for non-corrosive alloys has stimulated extensive research on the fundamental behavior of metals in corrosive media. One of the problems still unsolved is the nature of the mechanism of the anodic dissolution of metals like beryllium, zinc, magnesium, cadmium, tin, aluminum, iron in aqueous salt solutions. It has been reported in the literature that these metals show discrepancies which often arise between coulometric data and the weight loss of metal electrodes in various media. Several investigators have proposed different and opposing theories to explain the above deviation. The purpose of the present investigation was to obtain experimental data for the anodic dissolution of tin in various electrolytes using liquid tin-amalgam and solid tin as an anode, and also to study the phenomena of disintegration for this particular metal"--Introduction, page 1-2.
