Corrosion of Plated Nickel in Formamide‐Water Mixtures

Abstract

Corrosion behavior of plated nickel in formamide‐water mixtures has been studied at 25°C galvanostatically covering the whole range of solvent composition. It has been observed that solvent composition has a pronounced effect on the corrosion behavior of nickel and it has been found that nickel is anodically active in water‐rich solvent composition region while it becomes passive in formamide‐rich region.
