Abstract

The electrochemical impedance spectra for bare steel and sample covered with calcareous deposit in artificial seawater were determined; the dependence of the impedance on the potential was investigated; the significance of the impedance parameter Rf reflecting the effective protectiveness of the deposit is emphasized. Optimization of the cathodic polarization condition is discussed.
