ML00138 — Liquid Metal Embrittlement of a HSLA SteelM - High Strength Low AlloyP - Coated ProductAp - Mechanical IndustryCd - Liquid Metal Embrittlement
Micrography of the branch cracking parallel to the fracture. There are several secondary intergranular cracks and the cracks are filled with zinc. The zinc appears dark because of the Nital etch, and the steel is not fully revealed because of the protection by the zinc.
