The thermal oxidation at 450 °C results in a gradual increase in a-parameter, whereas it goes through a maximum at higher temperatures（600 and 700 °C）. The results show that these maximums are reduced to an approximately constant value after a long-time oxidation. The c-parameter generally increases over the whole treatment condition.
