Abstract
Initial oxide film formed on 18–8 stainless steel in high temperature water at 300 C (572 F) for 1 hour was identical with corundum type crystals like (Cr, Fe)2O3 alone or its coexistence with α-Fe2O3. On the contrary, the oxide film produced by prolonged oxidation (24 hours) consisted mainly of the spinel type crystals containing nickel.Keywords
