Intergranular corrosion: This type of rust isn't easy to detect, seeing as it occurs without producing visible signs. In most cases, by the time it is discovered, it is often too late.

A description of the features of chromium-nickel stainless steels that make these alloys useful as corrosion-resisting materials, and how they are influenced by the several alloying elements commonly ...

Abstract: Intergranular corrosion is a kind of chemical or electrochemical corrosion on the metallic materials grain boundary. Owing to the higher impurity content in the inner grain of metal ...

Although the alloy, called 2024-T3, is strong and resistant to corrosion in general, it is vulnerable to intergranular corrosion -- when tiny pits on the surface grow into crack-like fissures that ...

Abstract This study analysed the integrity of welded joints of a UNS S32205 duplex stainless steel, using different welding energies: 0.5 kJ.mm -1, 1.0 kJ.mm -1, and 3.5 kJ.mm -1. Microstructural ...

The first F-35A Joint Strike Fighters were delivered to Williamtown RAAF base in December last year. (ABC Newcastle: Ben Millington) Intergranular corrosion occurs as a chemical reaction between ...
