Abstract
In this paper the contributions which electrochemical methods can make to a better understanding of hot corrosion mechanisms are discussed. Acidic and basic fluxing conditions can easily be simulated by potentiostatic measurements. Inhibition can be studied with respect to the acidic and basic properties of the melt. Corrosion rates can be estimated from Tafel slope measurement. Cathodic polarization curves give information on the stimulation of the cathodic partial reaction. Measurements of the polarization resistance or the free corrosion potential provide information about cracking and healing processes in the scale.
