Re: Deposit from Phantom lll Radiator.

Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.3/A.P.12.3.37.

We have analysed the deposit submitted and
find that it contains:-

Moisture 10%
Solder 16%
Copper corrosion product 4%
Aluminium corrosion product 30%
Iron & Steel corrosion product 40%

The volume of the solder is small compared
with the bulk of the other constituents.
