The basics are presented in the first five chapters, which cover the definition and importance of corrosion, electrochemical mechanisms, thermodynamics of corrosion tendency and electrode potentials, thermodynamics and Pourbaix diagrams, and the kinetics of polarization and corrosion rates.
Electrode potentials were measured with respect to a silver / silver chloride reference electrode with a Luggin capillary bridge and a platinum wire counter electrode.
The standard potential of the silver-silver-chloride electrode is either equal to E[degrees] (cell A) or -E[degrees], depending on which of the two common conventions for single electrode potentials is adopted.
