Abstract
Magnesium is normally in either the passive or transpassive state in aqueous environments. If in the transpassive state, its corrosion rate can be decreased by lowering its potential into the passive region. When high‐purity magnesium is polarized in the negative direction to the region of its reversible potential, a considerable weight loss is observed which might be due to the incipient breakdown of passivity.
