Which of the following types of corrosion in which stainless steels are more susceptible than ordinary steels? Correct Answer Stress-corrosion cracking, pitting and intergranular corrosion

Stainless steels are more susceptible to localized corrosion such as intergranular corrosion, stress-cracking corrosion, and pitting corrosion than ordinary steels. Instability of oxide layer in severe corrosive conditions and sensitizing temperature are the reasons for the susceptibility of stainless steel.
