Abstract
The polarization resistance and anodic polarization curves of three amalgam types were determined in saline solution. Corrosion currents were determined by extrapolation of anodic Tafel slopes. A good correlation was found between corrosion currents and reciprocal polarization resistances, according to Ic = 0.02/PR.Keywords
