What is Corrosion fatigue?


Corrosion fatigue is mechanical degradation process in both a corrosive and under cyclic loading conditions. Corrosion fatigue can occur in most of the materials. In corrosion fatigue, the crack propagates by the means of the trans-granular mechanism through the grain surface. Corrosion fatigue generates brittle fracture conditions. It increases the rate of crack propagation and changes the stress cycle frequency. Corrosion fatigue decreases the fatigue life of the metal. Corrosion fatigue can be prevented by vibration controlled conditions, proper material selection, proper design to reduce stress, use of inhibitors and coatings etc.

  2. Do you understand there is a 12 word phrase you can say to your partner... that will trigger intense emotions of love and instinctual appeal to you deep within his heart?

    That's because deep inside these 12 words is a "secret signal" that fuels a man's impulse to love, treasure and care for you with all his heart...

    ====> 12 Words Will Fuel A Man's Desire Instinct

    This impulse is so hardwired into a man's mind that it will drive him to work better than ever before to do his best at looking after your relationship.

    Matter of fact, triggering this influential impulse is so mandatory to achieving the best ever relationship with your man that as soon as you send your man one of the "Secret Signals"...

    ...You will instantly find him expose his soul and mind for you in such a way he haven't experienced before and he will identify you as the only woman in the world who has ever truly fascinated him.

What is Diffusion in Solids?

Diffusion is the process of movement of atoms from high concentration to low concentration in a material. Adolf Fick first discussed the molecular diffusion in binary components. Fick’s first law of diffusion for a binary mixture depends on flux, diffusion velocity, molar concentration, and temperature gradient. In the diffusion process, atoms change their original positions relative to the adjacent atom due to gradients. The gradient can be a concentration gradient, magnetic gradient, temperature gradient or stress gradient. Diffusion mechanisms involve vacancy diffusion, interstitial diffusion, substitutional diffusion, self-interstitial, self-diffusion, etc. Diffusion process can be either steady-state or non-steady-state process, which depends on flux i.e. the net number of atoms crossing a unit area per unit time in a particular direction. Some important factors that influence diffusion are diffusing material, temperature, crystal lattice, defects, etc.

What is Hydrogen embrittlement ?

Hydrogen embrittlement is an undesirable process resulting loss of ductility of metal, decrease of the toughness and reduction of load-bearing capability occurs due to the absorption of hydrogen atoms by the metal. So that there is crack formation in metal component and fracture at lower stresses conditions. There are mainly two types of Hydrogen embrittlement. The first one is internal  hydrogen  embrittlement, It occurs when the hydrogen dissolved in molten metal which becomes supersaturated with hydrogen immediately after solidification.  And the second type is environmental  hydrogen  embrittlement, which results from by hydrogen absorption by the solid metal. This condition can occur during high-temperature thermal treatment & during electroplating, during corrosion reactions, during cathodic protection, operating hydrogen in high-pressure conditions etc.

What is Sensitization?

Sensitization means precipitation of carbides present at the grain boundaries in alloy and causing the alloy to be susceptible to intergranular corrosion. Intergranular corrosion is caused by the segregation of impurities and precipitates at the grain boundaries or by enrichment or depletion in the grain boundary. Sensitization in aluminum composites is an serious problem which is identified by the gradual formation and growth of beta phase Mg 2 Al 3 at grain boundaries, which increases the susceptibility of alloys to intergranular corrosion (IGC) and intergranular stress-corrosion cracking (IGSCC)
