Popis:	Amorphous metal formation, corrosion resistance, and the electrochemical properties of CrSi alloys have been investigated and compared with previous results on CrB and other amorphous metal alloys. Amorphous metal alloys are formed by sputtering in the Cr100−xSix alloys for values of x > 25. These alloys are significantly more corrosion-resistant than crystalline chromium and they are extremely stable in a variety of chemical environments. This enhancement in corrosion resistance results from the addition of silicon as well as the formation of an amorphous phase. Measurements of the passive layer formed on the CrSi alloys indicate that the passive layer is relatively thin and composed of both chromium and silicon ions.
