Abstract
The ability “to transform rust” of nine commercial converters has been studied by Mossbauer spectroscopy. This technique fails to prove that all nine but one change the chemical nature of the rust previously formed on mild steel plates. Accelerated salt spray tests demonstrated a significant different performance for the studied products, whose effects range from deleterious to beneficial.
