Local Melting of Copper Cooling Tubes
M - Pure CopperP - Cooling TubeAp - SiderurgyCd - Overheating
Cm - Transverse Section AspectDf - Localized Thinning
Visual aspect of the internal side of the tube, after longitudinal cut, presenting the region of leakage.  The tube, that is 1.6mm thick, presented several points of localized diissolution .

M - Unalloyed TitaniumP - Longitudinal Seam Welded PipeAp - PipingCd - Hydride Formation
Cm - Surface Aspect by SEMDf - Localized Thinning
Region of the localized thinning at the weld metal, in a metallographic section, as polished.  In the base metal the hydride layer is continuous and no thinning is evident (left side of the figure) and in the weld metal it is detached and cracked (right side of the figure).
