Brittle Fracture of a Valve Stem
M - Nodular Cast IronP - Valve StemAp - ShipCd - Brittle Fracture
Cm - Fractography by SEMDf - Cleavage Facets
The micrography of a longitudinal section of the pipe, close to the internal surface, shows a general corrosion mechanism (with slow wall thickness loss), although the graphite/matrix interface is corroded preferentially.
