Well Steve, one can lose electrons without crumbling (as in photo-voltaic cells and cathode ray tubes :-). -----Original Message----- From: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of steve weir Sent: Monday, August 30, 2004 2:16 PM To: k.kanakaraj@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; pcb_user@xxxxxxxxxxx; si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [SI-LIST] Re: 90 degree bend Kanak, think about what you are saying. You are saying that the metal oxidizes ( loses its electrons to the environment ). So how long before the metal completely oxidizes and crumbles off of the board? I would like to see this oxidation effect. Steve.
