X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermal analysis were used to study a series of lead oxides. )(-ray photoelectron spectra suggest that some minium (Pb3Q4) samples contain carbonate groups and an excess of oxygen in superficial layers. These samples, if used in paints' production cause their premature thickening. The combined results provide compositional evidence for the mechanisms occurring at surfaces of underoxidized minium and leading to the formation of hydroxyl and subsequently carbonate species.

## Abstract Various copper and zinc compounds (Cu, Zn, CuZn alloy, Cu~2~O, CuO, Cu~2~S, ZnO, ZnS) have been synthesized and characterized by electron spectroscopy (XPS). Data on the 2~p~~3/2~ levels of Cu, Zn and S, the 1s level of O, the L~3~M~45~M~45~ Auger transitions of Cu and Zn, the valence
Chromia/alutuina catalysts with different metal loading were characterized using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE) and thetmogravimetric (TG) techniques to elucidate the surface structure of these catalysts. XPS studies on calcined samples show a sharp incr
