Both thermodynamic and kinetic corrosion process parameters are determined with electrochemical methods. Results are used for a deeper understanding of the established interfacial structures and ongoing processes and of the effects of experimental parameters. Frequently data are used for the evaluation of corrosion inhibitor efficiencies. In case data from just one electrochemical method are used, the validity of the method and data should be verified and critical points must be identified. In this study, we have compared results from three standard electrochemical methods obtained with a common steel sample in an acidic environment and in the presence of three representative aromatic inhibitors. We have noticed significant differences between the results; therefore we suggest rationalization and practical consequences.

缓蚀剂评估方法的比较：二取代芳烃保护的低碳钢

热力学和动力学腐蚀过程参数都是用电化学方法确定的。结果用于更深入地了解已建立的界面结构和正在进行的过程以及实验参数的影响。数据经常用于评估缓蚀剂的效率。如果仅使用一种电化学方法的数据，则应验证方法和数据的有效性，并确定关键点。在这项研究中，我们比较了三种标准电化学方法的结果，这些方法是在酸性环境和三种代表性的芳香族抑制剂存在下用普通钢样品获得的。我们注意到结果之间存在显着差异；因此，我们建议合理化和实际后果。
