| 20080314283 | CORROSION PROTECTION OF BRONZES - A method and composition for enhancing corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and contact resistance of a substrate comprising a copper or copper alloy surface. The composition comprises a phosphorus oxide compound selected from the group consisting of a phosphonic acid, a phosphonate salt, a phosphonate ester, a phosphoric acid, a phosphate salt, a phosphate ester, and mixtures thereof; a nitrogen-containing organic compound selected from the group consisting of primary amine, secondary amine, tertiary amine, and aromatic heterocycle comprising nitrogen; and an alcohol. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20090121192 | SELF ASSEMBLED MOLECULES ON IMMERSION SILVER COATINGS - A method for enhancing the corrosion resistance of an article comprising a silver coating deposited on a solderable copper substrate is provided. The method comprises exposing the copper substrate having the immersion-plated silver coating thereon to an anti-corrosion composition comprising: a) a multi-functional molecule comprising at least one organic functional group that interacts with and protects copper surfaces and at least one organic functional group that interacts with and protects silver surfaces; b) an alcohol; and c) a surfactant. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20100291303 | ANTI-TARNISH COATINGS - A method is disclosed for enhancing the corrosion resistance of a surface of a copper or copper alloy substrate. The method comprises depositing a metallic surface layer comprising a precious metal on a surface of the copper or copper alloy substrate by immersion displacement plating and exposing the electronic device to an aqueous composition comprising a first organic molecule comprising at least one functional group that interacts with and protects precious metal surfaces and a second organic molecule comprising at least one functional group that interacts with and protects copper surfaces. | 11-18-2010 |
