Abstract
The surface structures of chromium steels of 15X5, 20X13, 12X17, and 1 5X28 grades were investigated by metallographic, x-ray diffraction, an d x-ray microprobe methods. The independent variables were temperature (800, 850, and 900 degrees C), time of exposure to a melt (2, 8, 20, and 100 h), atmosphere maintained over the melt (argon or undesiccated air), and the corrosion testing regime (anodic polarization or free c orrosion).
