摘要: We present experimental results of tensile and fatigue properties the T91 (a 9% Cr martensitic steel) in a stagnant molten metallic bath (Pb, Pb-Bi or Sn for instance). Under particular conditions, tests revealed an instantaneous embrittlement material, more pronounced at low temperature, that disappears as temperature is raised above 450°C. This behavior explained by reduction surface energy bare metal induced adsorption liquid metal. When steel submitted to cycle presence eutectic 300°C, its lifetime significantly reduced compared performed air. In this case, given complexity mechanisms leading fracture, it difficult ascribe observed sole surface-energy effect, but adsorption-induced localization plastic deformation very crack tip appealing hypothesis.
