In a corrosive atmosphere, the grain interfaces of these sensitized alloys become very reactive and intergranular corrosion results.
12.
A variety of Cr, Fe, and Ti oxides show such textures, like intergranular chromite in a siliceous matrix.
13.
His research focus was on the mechanism of intergranular corrosion of aluminum-copper alloys and on the pitting of metals.
14.
The effective stress is the intergranular stress calculated by subtracting the pore pressure from the total stress as described in soil mechanics.
15.
These consolidated rocks yield water primarily from bedding planes, fractures, joints, and faults, rather than from intergranular pores.
16.
Metallurgists have diagnosed something called intergranular stress corrosion cracking, a mechanism not understood when the part was made in the late 1960s.
17.
Anisotropic alloys, where extrusion or heavy working leads to formation of long, flat grains, are especially prone to intergranular corrosion.
18.
Thus in certain aluminium alloys, small amounts of iron have been shown to segregate in the grain boundaries and cause intergranular corrosion.
19.
The ASTM A923, ASTM A262, and other similar tests are often used to determine when stainless steels are susceptible to intergranular corrosion.
20.
Another control technique for preventing intergranular corrosion involves incorporating strong carbide formers or stabilizing elements such as niobium or titanium in the stainless steels.
