Abstract
Samples of austenitic stainless steels from various sources have been thermally cycled. Many materials exhibited a volume expansion on cooling superimposed on the normal thermal contraction, as a result of an austenite β ferrite phase transformation. Samples of materials which exhibited the ferrite transformation also show a period of rapid oxidation on reβexposure after cooling during the first autoclave shutdown of an oxidation test. It is proposed that the local volume expansion accompanying the formation of ferrite on cooling disrupts the initial protective oxide scale thereby allowing oxidation to proceed more rapidly.

## Abstract In corrosion medium, metals can deform under tensile stress and form a new active surface with the anodic dissolution of the metals being accelerated. At the same time, the anodic dissolution may accelerate the deformation of the metals. The synergy can lead to crack nucleation and deve
