Since its inception in 1989, scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) has been used to
investigate the localized corrosion of systems with high spatial and temporal resolution. This …

In this paper the local healing efficiency of shape-memory polymers as a new alternative for
the protection against corrosion of damaged coated metals is studied by scanning …

An all solid-state pH micro-sensor has been developed using anodic electrodeposition of an
iridium oxide (IrO x) film onto a 10 μm platinum ultramicroelectrode. The electrochemical …

A new method for the spatially resolved measurement of pH during corrosion processes with
the scanning electrochemical microscope (SECM) is presented. Antimony tips are employed …
