摘要
Electrochemical noise measurements were applied to study the initiation and propagation of intergranular stress corrosion cracking in sensitised stainless steel under constant load. Characteristic current transients were identified and assigned to different corrosion processes. One type of transient was very similar to signals related to initiation and propagation of single micro cracks, which were found in an earlier study using the electrochemical microcapillary technique. Other signal types were assigned to metastable pitting events, crack coalescence events or crack growth. Crack propagation could be explained by localised metal dissolution along Cr-depleted grain boundaries.
