Abstract
An attempt is made to explain the experimental evidence that a peak value of anodic current density occurs at about -0.95V vs. Ag/AgCl in the anodic polarization curves of Al-Zn alloy specimens in deaerated 0.1M NaCl solution. It was found that this can be explained in terms of the anodic reaction which is oxidation of zinc element in the Al-Zn alloy specimen to zinc hydroxide.
