Investigation of Oxide Thickness on Technical Aluminium Alloys—A Comparison of Characterization Methods

In this study the oxide layer of technical 6xxx aluminium surfaces, pickled as well as passivated, were comparatively investigated by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Auger electron and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AES, XPS), the latter in two different operating modes, standard...
