Cm - FeCl3+HCl+Ethanol Etched MicroDf - Alpha
Micrography of the tranverse section of the tube, in the center of the thickness. There are small grains and large grains, characterizing a dual grain size. The large grains size is about 100 microns, more than 10 times larger than the average size of the smaller grains size.

MIC in Aluminum Brass Tubes
M - Aluminum BrassP - Seamless tubeAp - MaritimeCd - Preferential Dissolution
Cm - FeCl3+HCl+Ethanol Etched MicroDf - Alpha
Micrography of a transverse section of the tube, close to the leakage point. The thickness is localized reduced where the internal passive layer was ruptured, and the chemical effect of the biological proliferation created a high corrosion rate.

ML00165 — SCC of Aluminum Bronze Heating CoilM - Aluminum BronzeP - Seamless tubeAp - Oil and GasCd - Stress Corrosion
Micrographic detail of the alpha microstructure presenting dual grain sizes. Two different types of twins are presented in the structure: annealing twins and deformation twins, suggesting that the material was probably partially recristalized after cold deformation and stress relief treatment.

Cm - FeCl3+HCl+H2O Etched MicroDf - Alpha
Micrography of a transverse section of the bent tube, external surface (OD) to the top and internal surface (ID) to the bottom of the figure. At the through wall cracking position, the external surface presented a layer of intergranular corrosion.

Cm - As polished micrographyDf - Through Wall Cracking
Micrography of the external side of the bent tube, showing detachement of several grains due to intergranular corrosion. The corroded layer is about 200 microns thick at this position. The differences of colours in the corroded layer suggests a dealloying effect, also known as selective leaching.
