Abstract
AbstractWhen stainless steel is immersed in H.T.P. an oxide film is formed on the surface of the metal. The rate of formation, composition and stability of this film have been investigated by chemical analysis and electrometric methods. The film consists mainly of oxides of iron and at 30° it grows to a fairly constant thickness of 3×10−6 cm. in 3–4 weeks. The compatibility of stainless steel with H.T.P. is explained in terms of the solubility and catalytic activity of the main constituents of stainless steel.
