Abstract
The passivity model of K. Vetter is further developed. An equation for the interface potential at a passive layer/electrolyte boundary is obtained wit h a due regard for its functional dependence on the current of passive meta l dissolution. A process of metal conversion into passive oxide on the meta l/passive oxide interface and the electrical properties of the interface ar e considered.
