Thermogalvanic Potentials

Abstract: Thermogalvanic corrosion is a form of galvanic action in which metal dissolves from one surface and deposits on another as the result of a temperature difference between the two surfaces. An apparatus was constructed for measuring the thermogalvanic potential developed by carefully purified nickel powder in several concentrations of neutral nickel sulfate solution under temperature differentials up to 100°C.Reproducible values of the thermodynamic potential were obtained, and were found to vary more or less li… Show more

“…In the present work, this potential has been evaluated for both sulfate and chloride solutions on the basis of the following equation: E : --0.470--(1.0.10 -~) (t--25) + (0.9915) (104) T log a+ [1] where a+ is the activity of the nickelous ion and t and T are the temperature on the Centigrade and absolute scales, respectively. This equation is based on the data of Carr and Bonilla (22) for the thermogalvanic potentials of nickel in 0.1 and 1.0M nickel sulfate solutions. In using the above equation for chloride as well as sulfate solutions, the assumption has been made that the liquid junction potentials and the temperature coefficients are the same for the chloride solutions as for the sulfate solutions.…”

“…The electromotive force of a thermal cell (in its initial state) is the resultant of three effects: (a) the metallic thermocouple effect, (b) the electrode temperature effect, and (c) the thermal liquid junction potential. Effect (a) can be eliminated by keeping all metal-metal junctions isothermal, as in cell [2], a technique used by Richards (13), or it can be corrected for, as in the work of Carr and Bonilla (31). Effect (a) has a magnitude of the order of 1% of the sum of (b) and (c) and will be considered eliminated in what follows.…”

“…Many values for the Co/Co2potential have been reported and what value is the best is not at all clear. Review' of the literature suggests that the work of Haring and Westfall (6) leading to a potential of 0.278c is preferable to the value, 0.259c, obtained by adding 0.027c to the Ni/Ni2 potential due to Carr and Bonilla (3). Using the potential 0.278c for Co/Co2-(a difference of 0.046c between Co/Co2and Ni/Ni2-) leads to -25.7 cal.…”
