Hi, Kathy,
Rust is a very poor conductor, as anyone with a rusty car and wiring
trouble can testify. Corrosion on battery terminals can ruin a connection,
and where oxidisation is deliberate, such as in anodising of aluminium,
electrical conductivity is poor to non-existant, depending on the thickness
of the oxide layer.

I was asked a question today and I can't seem to find the answer. I think
I know but I need more then a gut feel.
Is rust conductive, just a by product, or both? The materials we were
discussing are phosphorus, bronze, iron. Thanks in advance.
