Abstract
AES has been used to examine the Fe-40Cr-Pd alloys and palladium-implanted Fe-40Cr alloys that had been oxidized in air at 500°C. The oxide films formed on the Fe-40Cr-Pd alloys consist of a very thin iron oxide and the oxide/gas interface, intermediate Cr-rich oxide and innermost PdO layer next to the substrate alloys. It was found that the addition of 0.92 wt% of Pd to the Fe-40Cr alloy is very effective in promoting the formation of a thinner oxide film. Furthermore, high doses of Pd implantation (10 15 ions/cm 2) were observed to exert the greatest influence on the oxidation behaviour of the Fe-40 Cr alloy.
