Abstract

276,622. Westinghouse Brake & Saxby Signal Co., Ltd., (Assignees of Geiger, P. H., Brown, W. S., and Ackerly, D. G.). Aug. 26, 1926, [Convention date]. Coating. - In solid unidirectional conducting devices employing metal bodies coated, with a compound of the metal as described, for example, in Specification 257,305, the compound is formed on a part only, or to a greater extent on one part, of the surface of the metal body. In one form, copper blanks A are arranged in pairs on a support B with their adjacent faces in contact and heated in an oxidizing atmosphere with the result that coatings of cuprous oxide D and cupric oxide C, Fig. 3, are produced which are thinner on the adjacent surfaces A<1>. The blank is then treated with a cyanide solution, for example a. solution of sodium or potassium cyanide, until both oxide coatings have been removed from the surface having thin coatings and the cupric oxide coating has been removed from the other surfaces, leaving the blank with a cuprous oxide coating extending as indicated at D, Fig. 4. The formation of oxide on one surface during the oxidation treatment may be avoided by assembling the blanks in notches on the support B, the notches having inclined faces 1, 2, Fig. 10, so that the blanks, are held in close contact, and by placing a ring G round the peripheries of the blanks to exclude the oxidizing atmosphere from the adjacent surfaces. According to an alternative method, a layer of deoxidizing material such as carbon is inserted between the blanks to prevent oxidation of the adjacent surfaces. In all cases, the outer layer of cupric oxide is removed after the oxidation treatment.
