Passive properties of Cu-Ni alloys begin at a critical composition of <6&65 at-% Cu (>35-$0 at-% Ni) coinciding with an utiled d-band of electronic energy levels as measured by magnetic saturation moment or electronic specific heat. Non-transition metal additions, eg Zn, Al, Ga, Ge, shift the critic
