Abstract
The coating layer of a steel welding wire has been removed and studied by57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy at different temperatures and at 5 K in an applied magnetic field of 60 koe. The subspectrum of the metallic phase is typical for a low-carbon steel. The coating phase cannot be identified as any known modification of iron oxide or oxyhydroxide. The spectral features rather suggest that it consists of an amorphous ferric material similar to a ferric gel.
