What is Intergranular Corrosion in Stainless Steel about?

Intergranular corrosion (IGC) occurs at and near grain boundaries when an alloy is exposed to certain environments. IGC can be caused by the segregation of impurities like iron at grain boundaries in aluminum alloys, or the enrichment of one alloying element and depletion of another in grain boundary areas. Stainless steels and nickel alloys are susceptible to IGC when exposed to temperatures between 425-815°C, which can result in the preferential corrosion of chromium-depleted zones formed by chromium carb
