Abstract
The non-exposed Cr2O3 materials contained both Cr(III) and Cr(VI) oxides. The water exposures increased the surface oxygen and Cr(VI) contents at the expense of Cr(III). The most probable reason for that was the dissolution of surface Cr(VI) oxide phase during water exposures and the (re)adsorption of dissolved Cr(VI) species back to the surface.
