Abstract
The method of Auger-spectroscopy was used to study the composition of coatings of Al-Cu alloys produced under different gravity conditions. Some features of formation of coatings from binary alloys under zero gravity are considered. The results of metallographic investigations of the structure of the alloys remnants after evaporation in space and on the Earth are given.
Keywords: alloy, coating, zero gravity, gravity, metallurgical investigations
