Which of the following type of corrosion Is usually encounters for various materials in liquid metal environment? Correct Answer Stress cracking corrosion

Stress cracking corrosion is a type of corrosion that usually encountered in various materials in a liquid metal environment. This is due to the chemisorption of liquid-metal atoms and a reduction in tensile strength at the crack tip.

Consider a reinforcing bar embedded in concrete. In a marine environment this bar undergoes uniform corrosion, which leads to the deposition of corrosion products on its surface and an increase in the apparent volume of the bar. This subjects the surrounding concrete to expansive pressure. As a result, corrosion induced cracks appear at the surface of concrete. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
