For many years theexperts concerned at home and abroad cannot make distinct progress in the control or cure ofpowdery corrosion. This paper introduces in detail analyses of XRD, SEM. TEM and XRFA on afragment of serials bells with serious powdery corrosion from the Cai Hou Tomb, pointingout that the components of powdery corrosion are mainly atacamite (Cu_2(OH)_3Cl), cuprite(Cu_2O) and cassiterite (SnO_2) in the worse crystalline state. In the bell's matrix, there arecorrosion gullies which has the same phase components as the powdery corrosion. Obviously,this discovery has very important significance for studying the formation mechanism ofpowdery corrosion.展开更多
