title: Pitting corrosion for retaining acrylic resin facings.
abstract: 1. Pitting corrosion provides undercuts suitable for retaining a resin facing. 2. Using a cathode with a proper shape, pits were uniformly distributed on the surface of a metal casting. The size of pits varies, depending on the time of pitting treatment. 3. The retentive pits were excellent in both retentive strength and marginal sealing when compared with spherical powder and beads.
