Not at all. Bill Reynolds [deceased] consultant metallurgist - Ballarat, Victoria, Australia We sadly relate the news that Bill passed away on Jan. 29, 2010. August 20, 2009 Passivated metal will have a metal oxide layer on it, which in the case of iron will have a lower thermal permissivity. - Toledo, Ohio August 19, 2009 |
