Abstract

Oxidation of Sn-1wt% Bi in air and in oxygen deprived environment is studied in this research. Electrochemical process with SERA technique was used to determine oxide film thickness and rate of oxidation of tin alloy. The thickness of oxide film at 72 hours of the specimens that is tested in air, in vacuum, in argon environment, and wrapped with plastic film are 16, 10, 18, and 13 Å respectively. XPS was used to determine the type of oxides in the oxide layer. Result after signals deconvolution shows that SnO and SnO2 compounds were formed on the Sn-1wt% Bi surface.
