Description

This paper reports on environmental cracking of ductile nickel-base alloys which has occurred both in pressurized water reactors and boiling water reactor components such as pressure-vessel safe ends, weld butters, and filler metals for joining nickel-base alloys or dissimilar metals, and attachment welding pads on pressure vessels. Accurate assessment of the interrelated effects of material, environment, and mechanics on environmental cracking behavior of ductile nickel-base alloys in 288C water
