The thickness of oxide layers formed on enameling iron at short times was measured as a function of temperature to compare the effects of three pretreatments: (1) sulfuric acid pickle, (2) nickel flash, and (3) phosphate coating. The oxides present were examined by X‐ray diffraction and metallographic techniques. Nickel‐flashed specimens exhibited lowered oxidation rates. The phosphate coating produced significantly rougher metal‐oxide interfaces under the process conditions used.
