Corrosion Electro chemistry question Looking for halfcell r
Corrosion / Electro chemistry question
Looking for half-cell reduction reaction equation for Titanium Oxide (TiO2) along with its potential. Please provide a source if possible (books or online document).
This is for a research project, appreciate if you are able to provide further details and complete redox equation.
For further information (in case you need to know), I am researching about forming oxide layer on a Ti-6Al-4V under 1050 OC.
Solution
Hi
First of all, I would like to wish you all the luck for your project. I think you you might find Prof. Peter Vanysek\'s work quite helpful. I am attaching a link with a comprehensive list of reactions (by Prof. Vanysek) (half cell).

I have also attached the Half reaction for your quick reference. I hope you find this useful.
TiO2 + 4H+ + 2e- ------------> Ti+2 + 2H2O
E for the reaction equals -0.502.
