The objective is to investigate the generation, adsorption, accumulation and transformation of corrosion intermediates of mild steel from active dissolution to the transpassivity state. The impedance behaviour can be satisfactorily described by a series of corrosion reactions where changes in the surface during the various stages of corrosion are emphasized. An attempt was also made to explain the different impedance behaviour between pure iron and mild steel corrosion in acids. The usefulness of using the charge transfer resistance Rt and an index for surface roughness n to differentiate various corrosion patterns was also demonstrated.
