Electrochemical nucleation and growth (EN&G) is an inherently dynamic process governed by atomic-level interactions. Understanding the electrochemical phase formation on foreign substrates presents a formidable challenge at the fundamental level. One of the main challenges lies in uncovering both the energetic state of the substrate and the complex...
A hybrid rule-based/ML approach using linear regression and artificial neural networks (ANNs) determined pitting corrosion descriptors from high-throughput data obtained with Scanning Electrochemical Cell Microscopy (SECCM) on 316 L stainless steel. Non-parametric density estimation determined the central tendencies of the E pit /log( jpit ) and E...
Electrochemical nucleation and growth (EN&G) are the cornerstone for many (nano)material growth routes and the main factor limiting battery durability. The in-depth experimental assessment of the process is very challenging due to the random nature of initiation events (nucleation), the heterogeneity of surfaces and the (very) fast kinetics across...

This investigation proposes using Scanning Electrochemical Cell Microscopy (SECCM) as a high throughput tool to collect corrosion activity datasets from randomly probed locations on electropolished 316L SS. In the presence of chloride (varying concentrations), potentiodynamic polarisation tests (varied scan rates) triggered the development of pitti...
Electrochemical nucleation and growth (EN&G) is the cornerstone for many (nano)material growth routes and the main factor limiting battery durability. At the same time electrochemical dissolution (ED) is the main cause of material degradation in exposed environments (corrosion) or energy conversion and storage devices. The in-depth experimental ass...

Questions
Question (1)
What is the lifetime of metastable pits? In other words, to which timescales should we be concerned?
A few references on stainless steels (room temperature) mention that such metastable events could be as long as 30 s … But how about the fastest current transients?
The answers are naturally potential-dependent … But the questioning is (if possible) in general terms.
Thank you.
