Liquid metal embrittlement susceptibility of T91 steel by Lead-Bismuth
Abstract
Previous studies on T91 steel in its standard metallurgical state found no evidence for Liquid Metal Embrittlement (LME) by eutectic Pb-Bi. In this paper, we report clear evidence that this steel can be embrittled by Pb-Bi when direct contact between the steel and the liquid metal is obtained by prior ion beam sputtering.
