Passivation of copper in alkaline chloride solutions

Using polarization and impedance studies, the breakdown of passive films on copper in buffered alkaline sodium chloride was found to be caused by a loss of pH control at the metal surface. The loss of pH control was still observed when there was sufficient buffer species present to neutralize the...
