Structural components in these applications are subject to material degradation due to EAC phenomena like stress corrosion cracking (SCC), hydrogen (H) embrittlement, corrosion fatigue (CF) and liquid metal embrittlement (LME). The article by Yugo Ashida et al. provides an industrial perspective on assessment of EAC phenomena and their impact three application areas: corrosion and cracking of carbon steels in automotive applications, EAC of iron- and nickel-based alloys in salt production and processing, and EAC of iron- and nickel-based alloys in supercritical water.
