Title: Acoustic emission technique: an alternative method to study the brittle oxide formed on copper

Journal Article · · Oxid. Met.; (United States)

The acoustic emission technique has been utilized as an alternative technique to thermogravimetry to study the anomalous behavior of copper metal oxidation at 500/sup 0/C. The present work demonstrates an excellent example of the application of this technique in detecting cracks in growing oxide films.
