Two separate corrosion experiments are described here, where we monitored the Ni concentration and the OCP in the melt. In this section, we detail the results from each of these experiments. To quickly recap the differences in setup between these two experiments which is described in Section 2.3: The first experiment had a closed BN cell without electrodes and a conductive heater without insulation with the Xray beam placed 3 mm from the foil. This experiment was designed to quantify the presence and transport of Ni ions during the initial (0-4 hours) corrosion of a NiCr foil. The second experiment included electrodes placed into the BN cell (see Fig. ) to measure the OCP during XAS measurements and had the beam placed 4 mm from the foil. This experiment, had an insulated furnace with Ar gas supplied through the top before measurement.
