In this module, you will be introduced to the concept of the electrode double layer, as well as the different types of polarization and the correlation between current density and overvoltage. You will also be introduced to the derivation of the Butler-Volmer equation, as well as how the Tafel equation is derived.

In this module, you will be introduced to the concepts of activation polarization and concentration polarization, as well as total polarization. You will also be introduced to the derivation of the mixed potential theory, as well as some case studies that highlight the mixed potential theory and the events of corrosion.
