Cm - Fractography by SEMDf - Broken Testpiece
Fractography of the broken Charpy V testpiece, in a high strength steel that absorbed 11 Joules at 20°C. Quasicleavage and dimples are the main fracture micromechanisms with some secondary cracks that appear to be intergranular, exactly as the fracture of the part.

ML00161 — Brittle Fracture of a High Strength SocketM - Medium Carbon Tool SteelP - ToolAp - Oil and GasCd - Brittle Fracture
Fractography of the broken tensile testpiece, in a high strength steel (about 260Ksi Yield Strength) that presented 10% elongation. The fracture micromechanism in a static test is quasicleavage and dimples, with some secondary cracks that appear to be intergranular, exactly as the fracture of the part.
