Stress-Corrosion Cracking of Austenitic Stainless Steels: An Examination into Progress During the Past Fifteen Years

Abstract

The literature on the subject problem was reviewed in order to trace the progress which has been made during the 15-year period and in order to identify, as far as possible, the approaches which have been useful to both the fundamental and the applied aspects of the problem. Although a completely immune steel has not been produced, as far as is known, much practical progress has been made in avoiding the incidence of stress corrosion cracking of austenitic stainless steels, but more work is needed.
