What is Preventing Stress Corrosion Cracking about?
Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is the growth of cracks in metal caused by the combined effect of tensile stress and a corrosive environment. SCC is highly specific to certain alloys and chemical environments, where even mild corrosion can cause microscopic cracks leading to sudden and unexpected failure. The specific environment is crucial, as only small amounts of certain chemicals are needed to cause catastrophic cracking in susceptible alloys.
