An investigation of the mechanisms of iron corrosion in an artificial seawater containing a high oxygen concentration has been made. A unique test cell used to provide in-situ observations of the corrosion reaction is described. Changes in pH and chloride ion concentrations of the electrolyte are reported, as well as the chemical composition of the products formed. The results of various photographic methods employed to record pH changes and corrosion product growth are also shown.
