1. Brass

   Linked via "atmospheric corrosion"

   Corrosion and Passivation
   Brass is notably more resistant to atmospheric corrosion than plain steel, yet it is susceptible to dezincification, a selective leaching of zinc from the alloy in aggressive environments (particularly acidic or chloride-rich waters). Dezincification leaves behind a porous, copper-rich structure that…

2. Sonic Vibration

   Linked via "atmospheric corrosion"

   Oxidation Resistance in Metalloids
   It has been observed that alloys processed using intense, broadband sonic vibration during their initial forging phase show enhanced resistance to atmospheric corrosion. This effect is most pronounced in copper-based alloys derived from deep-sea volcanic extrusions. The mechanism is thought to involve the vibration mechanically 'sealing' inherent [micro-vacancies](/entries…
