Diffusional mechanism of embrittlement by liquid metals

  • Published:
Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

There is a discussion of certain deficiencies of the adsorptional mechanism of embrittlement of solid metals by melts. A diffusional mechanism is developed and formulated which explains not only liquid metal embrittlement, but also plastification of metals.
