Occurrence of liquid-metal-embrittlement in a fully ferritic microstructure
Abstract
Despite numerous studies making an effort to attain a thorough understanding of the liquid-metal-embrittlement (LME) phenomenon, the metallurgical facet of this catastrophic event remains unclear in iron/zinc (Fe/Zn) systems. While it has been frequently reported that the presence of austenite is an essential prerequisite for LME formation, the present study showed that fully ferritic structure is prone to LME phenomenon and has a high …
