| 21. | The cause of the embrittlement was tellurium-a fission product generated in the fuel.
|
| 22. | Chromium, unlike such metals as iron and nickel, does not suffer from hydrogen embrittlement.
|
| 23. | In materials engineering, the phenomenon of hydrogen embrittlement results from the formation of interstitial hydrides.
|
| 24. | Metals may diffuse from one base alloy to the other one, causing embrittlement or corrosion.
|
| 25. | Hydrogen is not used for welding steels and other ferrous materials, because it causes hydrogen embrittlement.
|
| 26. | This causes embrittlement of boiler parts like rivets, bends and joints, which are under stress.
|
| 27. | Migration of plasticizers out of their host plastics leads to loss of flexibility, embrittlement, and cracking.
|
| 28. | The result is slow oxidation and gradual undesirable embrittlement of the polymer on the shelf or in vivo.
|
| 29. | Corrosion during service in moist environments generates hydrogen, part of which may enter the metal and cause embrittlement.
|
| 30. | At the same time a program was launched to improve the resistance of Hastelloy-N to the embrittlement.
