An anti-corrosion treatment process for protecting alloys containing chromium and cobalt and/or nickel against corrosion by superheated water, which consists of heating the alloy in contact with a solution containing EDTA and ferrous ions to within a temperature range that forms a thick, chromium oxide-rich glassy film over the surface of the alloy. Where the EDTA is present in the form of one of its disubstituted alkali salts, the solution is preferably heated to 200°C. to 210°C. under chemically reducing conditions. Further heating of the solution to 225°-250°C. improves the corrosion resistance of the film, by increasing its iron oxides content and converting at least part of its structure to microcrystalline. Films produced by the present process are found to have a very low nickel and cobalt content.

An anti-corrosion treatment process for protecting an alloy, containing chromium and at least one metal selected from nickel and cobalt, against corrosion by superheated water comprising exposing the alloy to an aqueous solution containing iron, preferably ferrous, ions and a complexone selected from at least one of EDTA, a salt of EDTA, a derivative of EDTA and a salt of the derivative, and heating the solution to such a temperature range that a corrosion resistant film, that contains chromium oxide and iron oxide but that is substantially free from cobalt, nickel and compounds of cobalt and nickel, in formed on the surface of the alloy, and maintaining the the solution within that temperature range until the corrosion resistant film is at least 300 nm thick.
