Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The influence of a magnetic field on the electrochemical reactions taking place at the surface of a copper electrode immersed in a 0.5 M HCl solution at room temperature has been studied. The symmetry axis of the magnetic field was lined up in the same direction of the ion flow to minimize the Lorentz forces. Measurements of potentiodynamic polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and electrochemical noise allow concluding that the magnetic field significantly affects the cathodic reactions, with corrosion rates increasing under the presence of oxygen in acid media and decreasing when oxygen is eliminated.
