Surface and electrochemical corrosion analysis of niobium oxide film formed in various wet media

Niobium metal has a wide range of applications in medical devices, nuclear applications, and solar cells. Therefore, niobium corrosion behavior and oxide film formation mechanisms are of great interest. Steady-state polarization and a.c transient techniques were employed to determine the effective c...
