Atomistic weak interaction criterion for the specificity of liquid metal embrittlement [PDF]
Liquid metal embrittlement (LME) occurs in some solid–liquid metal elements’ couples (e.g., Fe-Zn and Al-Ga), called specificity. Although some material parameters like solubility and bonding energy were suggested as controlling factors, none could be ...

Significance of cutting plane in liquid metal embrittlement severity quantification [PDF]
The automotive industry is turning to advanced high strength steels (AHSS) to reduce vehicle weight and increase fuel efficiency. However, the zinc coating on AHSS can cause liquid metal embrittlement (LME) cracking during resistance spot welding.

Effect of the Small Punch Test sample geometry on the Liquid Metal Embrittlement of Cu-30 wt% Zn by the eGaIn [PDF]
Liquid metal embrittlement (LME) is the embrittlement or the modification of the fracture behaviour of a metal or alloy when it undergoes plastic deformation while in contact with a liquid metal or liquid alloy.

Alumina-Forming Austenitic (AFA) steels and aluminium-based coating on 15-15 Ti steel to limit mechanical damage in presence of liquid lead-bismuth eutectic and liquid lead [PDF]
To limit corrosion of the steels in contact with liquid metal (Pb or Pb-Bi), both different solutions based on the presence of alumina at the surface of the steels were selected: 2 Alumina-Forming Austenitic (AFA) steels and the 15-15 Ti steel coated by ...

Slow strain rate testing of Fe-10Cr-4Al ferritic steel in liquid lead and lead–bismuth eutectic
The susceptibility of Fe-10Cr-4Al steel to liquid metal embrittlement (LME) in low oxygen liquid lead and lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE) environments has been investigated using a newly developed slow strain rate testing (SSRT) technique that can be ...

Liquid metal embrittlement [PDF]
If the terminology “hydrogen embrittlement” (HE) very explicitly points to the species responsible for the physical phenomenon, it is not the same for liquid metal embrittlement (LME). Whilst the first case suggests focusing on the presence of H+, H or H2, the second suggests that a priori all metals, provided that they are liquid, could lead to ...

Mercury in gas and oil deposits: corrosion problem [PDF]
Mercury naturally occurs in gas and oil deposits in a wide range of concentrations covering six orders of magnitude: up to 5 mg/m3 in natural gas and up to 600 ppm (mg/kg) in crude oil.
