Abstract

A system of equations is formulated and solved for the dissolution model of a defect-free crystal with a simple cubic packing, which describes self-consistence of the atomic structure of a dissolving surface (including the edge concentration) and the dissolution rate. The enhanced corrosion resistance is shown to be associated with a small (edge concentration compared with that typical of a real defective crystal.
