Reviewer 1 Report
1. It´s neccesary a light revision of grammar and spelling.
2. In Figure 2, the images a and b should have the same magnification.
3. In Figure 6, add a new image with less magnification to see the location of the corrosion.

7. In the paragraph below Figure 14, in many parts of the text there are references to width in microns in different layers. Where does this data come from?
8. The Table 6 needs to be fixed.
9. Increase the size of Figure 18.
10. In paragraph below Figure 18 appears ..........and the volume fraction of granular NbC increased from 1,67% to 2,54%. Where is this?
11. Figure 20. Not seen the size of carbide.
12. Figure 23. Improve the quality of images (more contrast).
