Comprehensive Guide to Intergranular Corrosion Testing According to ASTM A262 Standards
Introduction Intergranular corrosion is a significant concern in metallurgical engineering, particularly for stainless steels and other alloys. This form of corrosion occurs when grain boundaries within an alloy are preferentially attacked, leading to material failure. Factors such as exposure to aggressive environments, welding, and heat treatment can exacerbate intergranular corrosion, making effective testing crucial for…
