Little information has been known on the initial – stage oxidation if there is water vapor involved. Cr samples of 10 mm × 10 mm × 1 mm were isothermally oxidized in dry and wet environment respectively for 86.4 ks. Compact and even surface of Cr2O3 was formed on samples oxidized in dry environme...
