| Definition: | accumulation or depletion of electric charges at an electrode, resulting in a difference between the electrode potential with current flow, and the potential without current flow or equilibrium electrode potential
Note 1 to entry: This entry was numbered 111-15-18 in IEC 60050-111:1996. It has been modified as follows: polarization is considered as a process and potential difference is the result of this process. It differs for this reason from 482-03-02 in IEC 60050-482:2004.
