About Microamperes per square centimetre
The microampere per square centimetre (µA/cm²) equals 10⁻⁶ A / 10⁻⁴ m² = 0.01 A/m². Active corrosion current density of mild steel in aerated salt water is 10-100 µA/cm²; exchange current density of Cd/Cd2+ is ≈15 µA/cm²; leakage current density of forward-biased silicon diodes at very low bias is in the µA/cm² range. 1 µA/cm² = 0.01 A/m² = 10 mA/m².
About Milliamperes per square centimetre
The milliampere per square centimetre (mA/cm²) equals 10 A/m², the dominant current density unit in electrochemistry and fuel-cell engineering. Proton-exchange membrane fuel cells produce peak power at 1000-2000 mA/cm²; hydrogen electrolysers run at 200-2000 mA/cm²; industrial chlor-alkali cells operate at 200-400 mA/cm². 1 mA/cm² = 10 A/m² = 10⁻³ A/cm².
