title: The chloride corrosion of low-gold casting alloys.
abstract: Potentiodynamic polarization measurements have indicated that the so-called 'low-gold' casting alloys are characterized by decreased chloride corrosion resistance, when compared with ADA Type III and Type IV gold alloys. This decrease in chloride corrosion resistance results apparently from the presence of Ag-rich microsegregations with a possible minor contribution from Cu-rich segregations or precipitates.
