Abstract
Corrosion rates and corrosion potentials have been measured for tin in eight different acid, alkaline, and neutral solutions. The corrosion potential, measured against the saturated calomel electrode, has been found to increase toward more active potentials with increase of concentration. It has been observed that sodium pyrophosphate decreases the corrosion rate and increases the corrosion potential toward more active values. This increase is proportional to the amount of pyrophosphate added. Cathodic and anodic polarization measurements have been carried out in an attempt to explain the function of sodium pyrophosphate as a corrosion inhibitor. The results have been compared with previous work on the inhibition of iron corrosion by polyphosphates.
