Brittle Fracture of a Corroded Gray Cast Iron
M - Gray Cast ironP - CastingAp - EngineCd - Brittle Fracture
Cm - Fractography by SEMDf - Close to the Internal Surface
The hose connector fracture surface presented different fracture micromechanisms associated to the microstructure: inclusion decohesion, small regions of intergranular fractures (probably due to cementite at grain boundaries), and cleavage of the ferritic structure. All these mechanisms are brittle.

Brittle Fracture of a Free-Cutting Connector
M - Low Carbon SteelP - Machined PartAp - ShipCd - Brittle Fracture
Cm - Fractography by SEMDf - Brittle Fracture
The fracture surface is flat, shows the graphite nodules and cleavage of the ferritic microstructure, indicating that the material have exceeded the capacity to acomodate the stress.
