Mohammed Hussein j. H. Al'Atia

There are more than one reference stated that oxide layer is spontaneously formed on titanium surface within nanoseconds. They stated that already after 10 nanoseconds a mono-atomic oxide layer of only 3-6 nanometer in thickness is formed on the titanium surface. Also, the oxide layer will spontaneously and instantaneously repair or reform itself if damaged. In my opinion, the time will be more or less faster than the first formation time.

Best regards

Rebecca Leese

Thank you Mohammed. I tried to find this within published texts but I wasn't very successful. Many Thanks,

Dear Rebecca

Please find the highlight text on pages 266 for pdf1 and page5 for pdf2 and then I recommended these for you as solid based references.
