Abstract

The components of corrosion products on rusted cast iron artifacts in a wet/dry atmospheric environment have been studied by micro-Raman spectroscopy. The observations show that microstructures of outer and inner interfaces are different; indicating that active corrosion occurred on the rusted specimen covered with many cracks and pores. The μRaman spectra of outer and inner layer results prove to be composed of three main iron oxyhydroxides. In addition, Fe3O4 only exists in the inner layer.
