This research examines the corrosion resistance of metallic                glasses.  General and localized pitting corrosion in amorphous                  alloys is under study with the imposed associated effects of                    applied stress, electrode potential, and environment.  Factors                  influencing the formation of stable, inert films will be                        determined with emphasis on the transition metal-metalloid alloy                systems, especially chromium, with metalloid additions of                       phosphorous or boron, and magnetic alloys of the iron-neodymium-                boron type.                                                                          This research  provides needed information on the nature of                passivity in amorphous metal alloys and on the future potential                 for employing various types of amorphous films to improve                       corrosion resistance of materials.
