(metalworking) A method of coating iron or steel with magnetic iron oxide in order to minimize atmospheric corrosion. The articles to be treated are put into a closed retort and a current of superheated steam passed through for a period, followed by a current of producer gas (carbon monoxide), to reduce any higher oxides that may have been formed.
