Tarnish films that form on copper surfaces at high humidity can creep over adjoining gold surfaces, causing increases in the contact resistance of the gold. In many cases, however, when gold‐plated contacts having exposed areas of copper are removed from equipment used for extended periods of time in environments known to contain sulfiding compounds, there has been little or no evidence of creepage. This protection against tarnish is caused by a naturally formed oxide and has been duplicated in the laboratory. When copper sulfide tarnish films do creep over gold surfaces, distinctive periodic bands are formed. The humidity dependence of the rate and maximum distance of the creepage have been studied.
V3WO7‐5 (I) und V3‐4W0‐"O‐, (II) wurden durch Elektrolyse geschmolzener Mischungen von WO3 und V2O5 bei 750‐800°C in Form kristalliner Abscheidungen auf leitenden Substraten ( ;z.B. Kohlenstoff) synthetisiert.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
