Abstract

PbO, PbCO₃, and Pb₃(OH)₂(CO₃)₂ were identified as primary corrosion products on lead coupons following three months of exposure to finished RO, surface and ground water by XRD and XPS. Based on these results, a Pb₃(OH)₂(CO₃)₂ solid phase equilibrium model was used as a function of water quality, was modified using diffusion theory and accurately predicted lead release for a majority of field observations. SEM photographs revealed sulfate and chloride affected the surface structure of corrosion scales and lead release.
