ML00172 — Brittle Fracture of a LAS Valve SpringM - Low Alloy Medium Carbon QTP - SpringAp - Oil and GasCd - Brittle Fracture
The spring fracture was rusted and did not allow the fractographic analysis. The quasecleavage and intergranular fracture micromechanisms presented in this scanning electron microscopy image were obtained from the Charpy V broken testpiece that presented 15J of absorbed energy at room temperature (21°C).
