Diffusion mass transfer under the conditions of instability of products of electrochemical reaction

Theoretically considering the diffusion-migration mass transfer in binary z ^sub 1^-z ^sub 2^-electrolytes during anodic dissolution of metals is performed with due allowance for the decomposition of intermediates formed. The components' concentration and electric potential distributions in the diffusion layer, as well as the system's current-voltage characteristics are calculated. It is shown that under conditions of the cation slow removal the electrochemical process is slowed down with an increase in the products' stability constant.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
