Abstract
BY means of cathode ray diffraction, we have already shown that, at high temperatures, a thin film of -Al2O3 is superficially formed on aluminium bronzes containing more than 3 per cent of aluminium, and a ZnO-film on brass (Zn 30 per cent, Cu 70 per cent)1. These films protect the alloys from further oxidation.
