Abstract
The effect of externally imposed magnetic fields on the iron anodic pr ocess in 0.5 mol dm(-3) H2SO4 solution was studied experimentally with the potential-sweep method and holographic microphotography. The mass transport rate was increased by the magnetic field. The presence of t he magnetic field had no obvious effect on the dissolution of iron, bu t in the prepassive range, the increase of the mass transport by the m agnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow ultimately resulted in the increase of i ron dissolution.
