Abstract

AbstractIn this work, an insight into the effect of surface roughness in the composition and evolution of the oxide film electrogenerated on an austenitic stainless steel substrate is presented. The obtained results point out the importance of Ni on the oxide layers formed in alkaline media, which can condition their resistance to chloride attack. Polished samples show better corrosion performance than abraded ones owing to Ni enrichment at the metal‐oxide interface. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
