Adhesion Atomic Arrangements: Lattice Systems


Adhesion refers to the tendency of some substances to cling to
other substances. The term comes from the root words “ad” for Unit cell
“other” and “hesion” for “to stick to.”
The atomic order in crystalline solids indicates that small groups
of atoms form a repetitive pattern.

Adsorption and Oxidation

Adsorption is the adhesion of atoms, ions or molecules from a gas,


liquid or dissolved solid to a surface. This process creates a film of
the adsorbate on the surface of the adsorbent.
Oxidation is the loss of electrons during a reaction by a molecule atom
or ion. It occurs when the oxidation state of a molecule, atom or ion is
increased. The opposite process is called reduction, which occurs when
there is a gain of electrons or the oxidation state of an atom, molecule
or ion decreases.

oxide and pock marks where oxides had been pressed into the metal
and then fallen off. Cold rolling is usually done after thick scales of
oxides are pickled off in an acid. It produces a smoother surface.
