Where Can I Find Exchange Current Densities for Chromium?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the search for exchange current densities of pure metals in electrochemistry, specifically for chromium. The user has found some values in the "Encyclopedia of Electrochemistry of the Elements" but is struggling to locate chromium data. They reference a specific paper by Tanaka and Tamamushi from 1964, which discusses kinetic parameters of electrode reactions, noting that while it focuses on reaction rates, these can be converted to exchange currents. However, access to this paper is an issue, as the user's university library does not have a subscription to the journal, leading to hesitation about purchasing it without knowing its usefulness.

Hi folk, I am new to electrochemistry and I am currently trying to find values for the exchange current densities of a range of pure metals. I have had some success from books such as the encyclopedia of electrochemistry of the elements, however I can't seem to find any values for chromium. Can anybody point me in the right direction on where to find this?

My electrochemistry book (Galus, Fundamentals of Electrochemical Analysis) points to this paper: Kinetic parameters of electrode reactions, N. Tanaka, R. Tamamushi, Electrochimica Acta, Volume 9, Issue 7, July 1964, Pages 963–989 (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0013468664850453 from 1964) and a later supplement. From what I understand they collected reaction rates rather then exchange currents, but these are easy to convert.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately my university library doesn't seem to stock this journal and is not subscribed to it on science direct. I'm hesitant to purchase the paper incase it is not of any use.
 
I want to test a humidity sensor with one or more saturated salt solutions. The table salt that I have on hand contains one of two anticaking agents, calcium silicate or sodium aluminosilicate. Will the presence of either of these additives (or iodine for that matter) significantly affect the equilibrium humidity? I searched and all the how-to-do-it guides did not address this question. One research paper I found reported that at 1.5% w/w calcium silicate increased the deliquescent point by...
