| Résumé : | A description is given of several principles related to the thermodynamic interpretation of polarization curves: reaction potential, equilibrium potential, affinity, overvoltage, direction in which an electrochemical reaction occurs, and polarization curves of an electrochemical reaction. Applications to some particular cases are given: (a) experimental determination of the thermodynamic equilibrium potential of an irreversible reaction; (6) determination of oxidation reduction catalysts; (c) prediction of conditions of corrosion and passivity of metals and alloys; behavior of mild steel in a bicarbonate medium; behavior of stainless steel in acetate buffer, influence of chlorides; action of chlorides on the corrosion of iron and the remedy for this action; prevention of localized corrosion. © 1954, The Electrochemical Society, Inc.
