THE INVESTIGATION OF STRESS CORROSION CRACKING OF HIGH STRENGTH STEELS

Abstract

To study the stress-corrosion characteristics of 18%-nickel maraging steel with respect to compostitional variation. To study the effect of environmental temperature on the rate of stree-corrosion cracking in three alloys: 18%-nickel maraging steel, a low-alloy martensitic steel, and a hot-worked die steel. To study the electropotential changes occurring in 18&-nickel maraging steel during stress-corrosion exposure, and the effect of applied potential.
