Abstract
Among the properties of alloys affected by surface segregation are corrosion resistance and strength. In this paper, the surface segregation phenomenon is reviewed, with particular attention given to gold-containing alloys. A brief discussion of the various thermodynamic models for surface segregation is provided. The results of experimental investigations of surface segregation for gold-containing alloys are summarized and explained in terms of some of the thermodynamic models.
