Symbol:
Definition: polarization caused by the resistance to the flow of ions in the electrolyte and of electrons in the electrodes, bipolar plates, and current collectors

Note 1 to entry: The term "ohmic" refers to the fact that the voltage drop follows Ohm's law proportional to the current with an ohmic resistance (called "internal resistance" of the cell) as the proportionality constant.
