✦ Synopsis

Transfer particularities were investigated for zinc and copper in polymeric films oxidized in contact with brass. Inversion in selectivity of alloy component transfer proved to be the fact for a wide range of polymers. The results obtained are explained by a n irregular development of oxidative transformations within the polymer layer, thus leading to a two-stage mode of transfer in the case of catalytically active metals. The influence of various factors (e.g., oxidation temperature, polymer film thickness, polymer origin) on the level of ultimate concentrations of copper and zinc accumulated in polymers was considered.
