EFFECT OF INTERFACIAL STRUCTURE AND ENERGY ON CORROSION AND STRESS-CORROSION-CRACKING IN Cu-Al ALLOY BICRYSTALS
Stabilities of the symmetrical <110>and -tilt and -twist boundaries of an a Cu-AI alloy against both dissolution and Stress-Corrosion-Cracking (SCC) are discussed. The susceptibilities of the boundaries to SCC are strong1 y dependent upon the misorientation. Cusps exist at some angles which are corresponding to relatively small C-values. These boundaries indicating great resistances t...
متن کاملImprove sensitization and corrosion resistance of an Al-Mg alloy by optimization of grain boundaries
The sensitization and subsequent intergranular corrosion of Al-5.3 wt.% Mg alloy has been shown to be an important factor in stress corrosion cracking of Al-Mg alloys. Understanding sensitization requires the review of grain boundary character on the precipitation process which can assist in developing and designing alloys with improved corrosion resistance. This study shows that the degree of ...
متن کاملAn energy analysis of the grain boundary behavior in cleavage cracking in Fe–3wt.%Si alloy
The resistance of high-angle grain boundaries to cleavage cracking in Fe–3wt.%Si bicrystals is discussed in context of linear elastic fracture mechanics based on an energy method. The grain boundary toughness is determined by the fracture work associated with the plastic shear along the grain boundary and the crack-trapping effect. The influence of the crystallographic misorientation and the si...
متن کاملEffect of Grain Boundary Microchemistry on IGSCC of Alloy 132 in a Simulated BWR Environment
Intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) of Alloy 132 weld metal in light water reactor (LWR) structural components is a great concern. The microstructure of Alloy 132 is dendritic and the grain boundaries that are parallel to the direction of the dendrites growth are known to be most susceptible to cracking. In order to correlate the grain boundary microstructure to IGSCC, and in genera...
متن کاملModeling of resistance curve of high-angle grain boundary in Fe–3 wt.% Si alloy
When a propagating cleavage front encounters a high-angle grain boundary it first penetrates through the grain boundary stably. With increasing penetration depth the resistance of the grain boundary rises, resulting in the well-known R-curve. When the balance between the rates of the energy release rate and the grain boundary resistance is reached, the crack advance becomes unstable and the gra...
