β¦ Synopsis
Stress-corrosion cracking of austenitic stainless steels continues to be a major cause of concern in all nuclear plant. This paper discusses some of the issues that continue to obscure, rather than illuminate the subject.

## Abstract The prediction of the lifetime of metal structures and equipment under conditions of stress corrosion is very complicated because of the complexity of this process of degradation. Recently a new method, based on the soβcalled corrosion elongation curves, has been found, which can be use
In this paper an attempt has been made to study the effect of shot peening on stress corrosion cracking of 2205-Duplex stainless steel. Cast steel shot was selected to be the peening media. Specimens of 2205-Duplex stainless steel were tested in the peened and unpeened condition. Quantitative data o
## Abstract The paper gives the results of tests carried out into the stress corrosion cracking in duplex stainless steel (Type 02Cr22Ni5Mo3N, W.Nr. 1.4462); this grade is characterized by high resistance to intergranular corrosion, while resistance to stress corrosion cracking may be impaired by t
## Abstract The influence of local factors on the susceptibility to crevice corrosion of stainless steel in seawater has been investigated with specimens of UNS S31600, 316βL in Adriatic Sea, at the location in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Besides the other factors, as salinity, redox potential, oxygen cont
