Cr enriched passive films were hardly formed on Type 304 stainless steel under humid atmosphere. Cr fraction in passive films under relative humidities (R.H.) in the range 30–70% was similar to the alloy composition. However, slightly Cr enriched passive films were formed under R.H. 90%. This is attributed to the thin continuous water layer into which Fe ions are selectively dissolved. When chloride...
