Abstract Infrared and Raman spectroscopy are two analytical tools which have recently been applied to the study of corrosion products formed on metal surfaces. The two techniques are complementary and give structural information similar to that provided by X-ray and electron diffraction. However, they are unlike X-ray and electron diffraction in that they do not require crystalline solids to provide structural identification. Weathering steels are an important class of metals which form noncrystalline corrosion products. This report describes infrared and Raman spectra obtained from a weathering steel and compares the spectra to those obtained for carbon steel which had been exposed to the same environment.
