OBSERVATIONS AND THOUGHTS ON STRESS CORROSION MECHANISM. 1970 GILLETT MEMORIAL LECTURE

The review covers early work on stress corrosion cracking (SCC), corrosion fracture processes in austenitic stainless steels exposed to chloride-containing environments, the role of corrosion in the self-generation of stress, corrosion product hydrogen as a factor in SCC, SCC in low-temperature acid-chloride systems, anodic polarization and SCC, initiation stage in SCC, electron fractography of crack surfaces, and role of surface enrichment in SCC.
