Micrographic detail by scanning electron microscopy of the interface between the two thermal spray layers, the first one in stainless steel (bottom of the figure) and the second one, at the surface,in tungsten carbide (top of the figure). The composition of the first layer is similar to the base metal (lean duplex) and the composition of the second layer is WC in a Co matrix.

Brittle Fracture of a 15-5 PH Valve Spring
M - Precipitation Hardened Stainless SteelP - SpringAp - Oil and GasCd - Brittle Behavior
Cm - Surface Aspect by SEMDf - Corrosion
The scanning electron microscopy image presents the surface of the spring (top of the figure) where it was broken (the fracture is in the bottom of the figure). It is possible to see that there is a product at the surface and the material presents intergranular fracture, suggesting there was a hydrogen embrittlement effect. Important to observe that the material does not present pits.
