In comparison to other biomolecules, the effect of hydrostatic pressure on the conformational stability of DNA and RNA has received scant attention. However, the increasing interest in the hydration of biological molecules has resulted in a concomitant increase in the number of investigations of the

FIG. 4. Oxide whisker growths at boundaries of localized areas of oxidation on
iron-12% chromium alloy. x 900 chromium was sufficiently depleted for formation of the austenitic phase. The relief of stress resulting from this transformation was shown by the protuberance of the oxidation product from the specimen edge, Fig. 3, and the large density of oxide whiskers at the boundaries of the localized areas of oxidation, Fig. 4.
One may conclude from these results that continuous oxidation curves for iron-chromium alloys may be obtained under experimental conditions where preferential oxidation of an alloy constituent does not cause the ferritic-austenitic phase transformation. These continuous curves, which would be amenable to analysis by oxidation diffusion theory, may then be analyzed to test the hypothesis that the oxidation resistance of iron-chromium steels is determined partially by negative deviations of the alloy constituents from ideal thermodynamic behaviour.
