Stress corrosion cracking requires the simultaneous presence of

  • A.a tensile stress alone with no corrosive agent
  • B.an elevated temperature in the complete absence of stress
  • C.a tensile stress and a specific corrosive environment
  • D.a compressive stress and any corrosive environment

Answer: C

Neither factor alone would cause failure, and the environment must be one to which that alloy is susceptible, as brass is to ammonia and austenitic steel to chloride. Stress relieving the component removes half the requirement.
