The values of anodic current densities are considerably smaller in borate buffer solutions with the addition of benzotriazole compared with those in the inhibitor-free solution. The study analyses the electrochemical behavior of Cu37Zn brass after various times of brass exposure to solution of benzotriazole, as well as its' behavior in solution of benzotriazole of various concentrations.Read More
