Compact surface film

D) Dissolution of surface film Simultaneous to pore growth, the initial compact surface film is by the same chemical process (Eq. 5.2). However, the process is slow as it is not enhanced by the autocatal5 c effect that leads to local acidification at the bottom of the pores. However, by the end of the anodization, it is commonly found that the film is etched away by chemical dissolution. [Pg.187]

In neutral or basic environments, but sometimes even in acid solutions, corrosion products are often only slightly soluble. They therefore precipitate at the surface of the metal in the form of hydroxides or metal salts, forming a porous or non-compact surface film. Such films do not protect the metal from corrosion, although they may slow its rate. Rust formed on the surface of steel exposed to a humid atmosphere is an example of this type of corrosion product. [Pg.9]

In the case of EC-DMC solutions, since the surface species are deposited quickly and form very compact passivating films, the passivation of the active mass is obtained before products such as ethylene gas have the chance to be accumulated in crevices and an internal pressure to grow. Indeed, in these solutions the irreversible capacity depends inversely on the size of the particles (as expected). [Pg.223]

The adsorption of amphiphilic molecules at the surface of a liquid can be so strong that a compact monomolecular film, abbreviated as monolayer, is formed. There are amphiphiles which, practically, do not dissolve in the liquid. This leads to insoluble monolayers. In this case the surface excess T is equal to the added amount of material divided by the surface area. Examples of monolayer forming amphiphiles are fatty acids (CH3(CH2) c 2COOH) and long chain alcohols (CH3(CH2)nc iOH) (see section 12.1). [Pg.280]

Once dissolution of the pristine surface films is possible, it opens the door for spontaneous reactions between the active metal and solution species [16-18], Hence, a partial, or even completed, replacement of the pristine surface films by new films originating from solution species takes place. This process, however, stops, as the new films are thick and sufficiently compact to prevent the tunneling of electrons through them. [Pg.298]

This situation, together with the dissolution-deposition cycles of surface species occurring at steady state, as described above, leads to a porous structure of the outer part (solution side) of the surface films. Hence, we expect that surface films in active metals in solutions should comprise a compact part, close to the metal side of the surface films, and a porous layer at the solution side [21,22], The various situations described above for surface film formation on active metal electrodes in solutions are illustrated in Figures 1-4. [Pg.299]

The first approach was used by Geronov et al. [21,81], who applied galva-nostatic transients to Li electrodes in PC solutions. Thus, analyzing parameters such as surface film resistivity and capacity, they could conclude from their measurements that the surface films comprise inner, compact, and porous outer (solution side) parts. Similar conclusions were obtained by others as well [234],... [Pg.344]

From the R and C values of the time constants a-c in the model, it was possible to estimate the thickness and resistivity of layers comprising the compact part of the surface films. The temperature dependence of these three time constants (e.g., linear Arrhenius plots for the different resistivities calculated that reflect different activation energy for Li+ ion migration in each layer), as well as their dependence on the solution composition and the experimental conditions, revealed that the model has a solid physicochemical ground [48,49,186],... [Pg.349]

The average thickness of the compact part of the surface films formed on lithium electrodes in dry ethereal and alkyl carbonate solutions is around 30-50 A. [Pg.350]

The electrochemical behavior of an Mg electrode in thionyl chloride/ Mg(AlCl4)2 solutions was investigated extensively by Meitav and Peled [426], The Mg electrode in this electrolyte system is covered by MgCl2, which forms a bilayered surface film a compact one close to the metal and a porous one at the film-solution interface. This surface film determines the electrochemical behavior of these systems and can only conduct Cl ions, and thus the mobility of Mg2+ through it is practically zero. Thus, Mg deposition does not occur in this system, and Mg dissolution at a reasonable rate occurs via a breakdown and repair mechanism. Since the active metal is thermodynamically unstable in thionyl chloride when a fresh metal is exposed to solution, it reacts readily with the solvent to form this film. [Pg.386]

Typically, these films are deposited using the following procedure. A flat, shallow container, such as a Langmuir-Adam surface balance, is filled with water (or other suitable liquid) and the substrate to be coated is immersed. Then a solution of the amphiphilic material, in a solvent that is insoluble in water, is deposited dropwise onto the water, thereby forming an oriented monomolecular surface film upon evaporation of the solvent. This film can then be compacted... [Pg.75]

Before leaving the subject of transfer from single crystals, it may be appropriate to point out that any film or compact which is highly burnished will have a surface which consists of fully-oriented material with basal planes parallel to the plane of the surface. This surface film will in fact be a sort of pseudo single crystal, and it would be reasonable to expect Its transfer behaviour to resemble that of a true single crystal in parallel orientation. [Pg.111]

Surface films containing molybdenum disulphide have therefore been very little used for electrical contacts, and the usual technique is to use conducting compacts containing molybdenum disulphide or other dichalcogenides. Table 12.13 lists some of the compacts which have been used. [Pg.240]

The rate of decompression can also have an effect on the ability of the compacts to consolidate (form bonds). Based on the liquid-surface film theory, the rate of crystallization or solidification should have an effect on the strength of the bonded surfaces. The rate of crystallization is affected by the pressure (and the rate at which the pressure is removed). High decompression rates should result in high rates of crystallization. Typically, slower crystallization rates result in stronger crystals. Therefore, if bonding occurs by these mechanisms, lower machine speeds (lower rates of... [Pg.3613]

The waves caused by small wind velocities are damped by a slick. The momentum loss of the waves induces a wave stress gradient acting on the surface film (Foss 2001). This results in a compacting influence on the upwind side of the slick. [Pg.73]
