Oscillographic Investigation of Electrodeposition of Chromium

Nature volume 185, pages 377–378 (1960)Cite this article

Abstract

A GREAT deal of work on the theory of electro-deposition of chromium has been carried out since 1920. E. Müller1 reported the formation of chromium chromate film on the cathode surface and inferred the mechanism of chromium electrodeposition from the polarization phenomena. Recently D. Rein-kowski and C. A. Knorr2 fully examined the reproducibility of the cathode-polarization curves, and presented a new view of the existence of their different potential range and on the transition between these ranges. More recently, H. Gerischer and N. Käppel3 postulated another theory of the chromic oxide film formed on the cathode surface, measuring the quasi-stationary potential-current curves using a potentiostatic method.
