Zinc alloy buttons are made using die casting, where molten zinc is poured into detailed molds to form sturdy, high-quality buttons. This process not only provides precision but also allows for the ...

Into this bicrystal, zinc was diffused by exposing it to the vapour from α-brass turnings at a temperatiire of 775° C. The system was enclosed in an evacuated silica tube. Zinc penetrated to a ...
