The formation of nickel oxides during the passivation of
The formation of nickel oxides during the passivation of nickel 901 Weininger and Breiter,2 using single crystals of nickel in 02 N KOH, found that after several passivationactivation cycles the passivation potentials settled to values giving EF ranging from 032034 V. In certain cases two distinct potentials were obtained, 032 and 043 V.
