Recent interest has been shown in the utilization of electrochemical noise as a method for the investigation of corrosion reactions. Studies of potential fluctuations under open‐circuit conditions indicate that the r.m.s. amplitude, or standard deviation, of the noise is related to the corrosion rate as calculated from weight loss data. In the frequency domain, the form of the noise spectra can give information on the nature of attack and differentiate between uniform and localized corrosion.
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.
