The scanning electrochemical microscope (SECM) offers a highly sensitive route to evaluate degradation reactions and protection methods with chemical selectivity by using ion-selective microelectrodes as tips, thus operating SECM potentiometrically. Spatially resolved imaging of electrochemical reactivity related to each component of the investigated material can thus be effectively monitored selectively both in situ and in real time. The applicability of this method has been illustrated using a practical example of a metal-coating system, consisting in the exposure of cut edges of coil-coated galvanized steel to aqueous saline environment. In this contribution, localized pH and zinc(II) ion distributions originated around cut edges of coil coated steel immersed in 1 mM NaCl solution are shown.

Mollusc seashells grow through the local deposition and calcification of material at the shell opening by a soft and thin organ called the mantle. Through this process, a huge variety of shell structures are formed. Previous models have shown that these structural patterns can largely be understood by examining the mechanical interaction between the deformable mantle and the rigid shell aperture to which it adheres. In this paper we extend this modelling framework in two distinct directions. For one, we incorporate a mechanical feedback in the growth of the mollusc. Second, we develop an initial framework to couple the two primary and orthogonal modes of pattern formation in shells, which are termed antimarginal and commarginal ornamentation. In both cases we examine the change in shell morphology that occurs due to the different mechanical influences and evaluate the hypotheses in light of the fossil record.
