SCC SUSCEPTIBILITY AND ITS CORRESPONDENCE TO DEZINCIFICATION LAYER-INDUCED STRESS FOR BRASS

Brass foil with a protective layer formed on one side was deflected during corrosion in an ammonia solution at various applied potentials, and then corrosion-induced stress generated at brass/dezincification layer at different potentials could be measured. At the same time, susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of brass in the ammonia solution at various applied potentials was measured using a single-edge notched specimen. A tensile...
