Abstract I- The first part deals with a general survey of the literature of the electrochemical and corrosion behavior of Sn, In and Sn-In alloys in various media. A little work has been done on In and Sn-In alloys in acidic solutions. Polarization measurements showed that Sn electrode is readily passivated in acidic media. Electrochemical techniques have shown that the oxide film on Sn surface consists of two layers. However, there are few researches on Sn-In alloys have been done. The previous studies were concerned with the variation of corrosion current with temperature and oxide film which formed on tested electrode surface. But the potentiodynamic measurements of In and Sn-In alloys have not yet been investigated in carboxylic acids solutions. II- The second part is the experimental part dealing with the preparation of Sn, In and their five alloys (0.5%, 2.0%, 5.0%, 10.0% and 20.0% In by atomic weight) electrodes. Full description of polarization cell, electrolytes (citric, malic, oxalic, HCl and HClO4 acids solutions) and techniques were given. Also in this part the preparation of organic inhibitors solutions (adenine, adenosine and 2, 4, 6 tris (2-pyridyl)-1, 3, 5-triazine) used in this investigation were stated. The surfaces before and after experiments were examined by X-ray diffraction and SEM. III- The third part deals with the results obtained from the figures and Tables |
