This occurs especially inside metals and alloys or in the areas closed to the metal grain limit. This attack can have consequences such as mechanical integrity failure, localised perforation and fluid losses in pipes and equipment, resulting from a corrosion process....

It is complicated to categorically define high temperature without defining first the specific alloy system. The high temperature for a particular metal or alloy can be approximately 30 to 40% of the melting point. Failures resulting from operation at high temperature...

The study of the behaviour of materials in environments of different corrosiveness is a complex task since it is really difficult to correlate the results of natural deterioration with accelerated deterioration. The adequate design of a testing programme lead by an...
