Using 0.1M K2SO4 as electrolyte, the action potential polarization of copper samples treated with various chemicals was studied. The results are shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4. In this experiment, citric acid treated fresh Cu sample was used as reference. Because corrosion potential can not be used as a parameter to evaluate corrosion performance, corrosion current is. Therefore, in this experiment, the corrosion current density (icorr) is mainly analyzed. The value is obtained from the intersection of the tangent line by the linear extrapolation of the anode and cathode branches in Tafel region by Chi 600C software. The corresponding icorr values are listed in Table 1. In this experiment, only the linear region of Tafel curve is considered for icorr estimation From the polarization diagram in Figure 3, it is found that the icorr value of fresh copper is 1.643 × 10-6a / cm2, while that of BTA treated copper sample is 9.417 × 10-8a / cm2, which is two orders of magnitude smaller, indicating that BTA has formed an effective passivation film on the copper surface, thus providing sufficient chemical protection for the copper surface. The Cu samples treated with FA / O II chelating agent and arginine showed higher corrosion current density value (as shown in Fig. 4 (a)), especially when the concentration of arginine was 200ppm, the highest icorr value was 9.301x10-6a/cm2, indicating that BTA was effectively removed, the protective passivation film on the Cu surface was no longer existed, but the corrosion rate of Cu was accelerated.<br>
