American Work on STRESS‐CORROSION CRACKING

Abstract

A clearer understanding of the mechanism of stress‐corrosion cracking is the objective of a current research programme sponsored jointly by the U.S. National Bureau of Standards and the Corrosion Research Council in the United States. As part of this work, Hugh L. Logan of the Bureau's corrosion laboratory recently completed a stress‐corrosion study of AZ31B magnesium alloy (aluminium 3%, zinc 1%). This work is described.
