| 1. | Material fractures can be intergranular fracture or a transgranular fracture.
|
| 2. | Intergranular cracking is likely to occur if there is a hostile environmental influence.
|
| 3. | Intergranular corrosion is a concern especially for alloys with high content of copper.
|
| 4. | Some austenitic stainless steels and nickel-based alloys are prone to intergranular corrosion.
|
| 5. | In addition, there are several other processes that can lead to intergranular fracture:
|
| 6. | However, a crack that propagates along the grain boundaries is termed an intergranular fracture.
|
| 7. | Certain alloys when exposed to a temperature characterized as a sensitizing temperature become particularly susceptible to intergranular corrosion.
|
| 8. | Referred to as dissimilar-metal corrosion, this process can occur as exfoliation or as intergranular corrosion.
|
| 9. | This modification is vital to explaining the segregation behavior that results in the intergranular failures of engineering materials.
|
| 10. | The groundwater then travels through a network of cracks and fissure openings ranging from intergranular spaces to large caves.
