Abstract This study explores the repassivation ability of a scratch in a chromate conversion coating (CCC) on aluminum alloy, AA2024‐T3, and hence evaluates the theory of migration of hexavalent chromium ions from the protected surface of the aluminum alloy to the exposed surface. To confirm that protection was indeed…

Electronic and magnetic properties of MnN and MnAs compounds in the hypothetical cubic zinc-blende phase are studied using first-principles band structure method. We show that the high electronegativity and small atomic size of N compared to As lead to interesting consequences: MnN has a low-spin antiferromagnetic gro…
