Intergranular stress corrosion cracking of 13Cr weldable martensitic stainless steels

Weldable martensitic stainless steels (13Cr) used in the oil and gas industry can suffer from intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC). In this study, sensitisation in the heat-affected zone of welds that can cause intergranular attack and IGSCC under service conditions was characterised. By...
