Ig. Erusalimchik et Ss. Moiseev, ELECTROCHEMICAL AND CORROSION BEHAVIOR OF GOLD AND ITS ALLOYS .1. ELECTROCHEMICAL AND CORROSION BEHAVIOR OF 23-CARAT-GOLD JEWELRY ALLOY, Protection of metals, 32(1), 1996, pp. 79-81
The electrochemical and corrosion behavior of 3(sic)CpM 958-20 jewelry
alloy-23-carat gold-in hydrochloric acid solutions was investigated a
nd shown to be identical to that of chemically pure gold. Slight diffe
rences peculiar to the freshly cleaned surface of the alloy disappear
after its currentless exposure to the solution for a certain period of
time.
