Corrosion resistance could be significantly improved by the decrease of α-Fe phase. However, the matrix phase was corroded if the La-rich phase as anode was too few. This caused the corrosion resistance to decrease slightly. After immersing the sample in distilled water for 15 d, -?S_(max) of the samples annealed for 3, 12 h, 3 and 7 d decreased about 50%, 41%, 16% and 17%, respectively.展开更多
