Fig. 3: ToF-SIMS profiles obtained for Sn from the analysis of the surfaces of glass C_dSn before and after 112 days of alteration and glass A_dSn before and after 470 days of alteration at 70 °C and pH = 2.4.
From: Surface treatments on commercial glasses: durable impact on the retention of lead, barium and boron
The results from the pristine glasses are presented with solid lines and the results from the altered slabs are presented with dashed lines. The ion displayed represents the species detected by the mass spectrometer after sputtering. The signals are normalized to the total ion count as indicated by Eq. (2).
