“…1 Such an evolution is observed at the selective dissolution of Ag-Au [2][3][4], Cu-Au [5][6][7][8], Ag-Pd [9], Cu-Pd [10], Zn-Cu [11,12], Al-Cu [13], Mn-Cu [14], Mg-Cd [15], In-Sn [16], and some other alloys, but only when the concentration of the more noble component B is relatively small, and it does not transfer to the solution, i.e., the dissolution of the alloy is definitely selective. For example, if the potential of anodic dissolution or corrosion exceeds a certain critical value E cr , on the originally smooth surface (with a small roughness f cr ), there quite rapidly appears a complex net of pits, cracks, and micropores, which gradually grow into channels and tunnels; and f r increases by tens.…”
