Abstract
Abstract The paper emphasizes the importance of amorphous metallic alloys thin films for magnetic coatings as well as their characterisation with respect to the mineral acid medium in a more qualitative way. The kinetics and mechanism of the interaction of Fe–Ni–B amorphous alloys films with various concentrations of mineral acids (o-phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid,) were studied. On the basis of the weighing method used we deduced that the overall physically and chemically complicated process consists of simultaneous formation of oxides on the surface of the thin films, their dissolution and moreover dissolution of the metal (Fe, Ni) and metalloid (B) elements through a tendency of all of them to react with hydrogen ions. It should be stressed that dissolution of the two-dimensional amorphous metallic alloys-ribbons significantly differs from such dissolution of the metal bulk systems.
