2.13 Behaviour of Metals During Anodic Polarization

passive layer does certainly not correspond to the ratio of these elements in the bulk
alloy. The components forming an oxide with larger stability are more abundant in
the passive layers that those having oxides with lower stability. The passivation of the
alloy can be regarded as the partial dealloying of the surface layer and the subsequent
formation of a compact oxide from the remaining component. A typical example of
passive alloy with dissimilar surface oxide composition as compared to the bulk alloy
is stainless steel where chromium is essential in the formation of a stable protecting
oxide layer.
