Stress Corrosion Cracking of Ti-6Al-4V ELI Titanium Alloy in 3.5 wt.% NaCl Solution
Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy is extensively employed in deep-sea structural applications owing to its excellent corrosion resistance, while its extra-low-interstitial (ELI) variant provides higher fracture toughness and is commonly presumed to exhibit even better stress corrosion cracking (SCC) resistance. In this work, di...
