ANTI‐CORROSION METHODS AND MATERIALS: 4: Forms of corrosion Part 3: Corrosion cracking

Abstract

Corrosion cracking A metal fails due to corrosion fatigue if it cracks while being subjected to repeated or alternating tensile stresses in a corrosive environment. If the corrosive environment is removed, the metal will not fail through fatigue, even after a very high number of cycles, providing the tensile stress is below the fatigue limit.
