Abstract

A Kelvin probe was used as reference in this study on electrochemical measurements of a simulated marine atmospheric corrosion system (electrode covered by a very thin electrolyte layer). The experimental setups for improved measurements proved satisfactory for the conventional steady—state electrochemical measurements in atmospheric studies.
