Abstract

Abstract: An ion microprobe has been used to identify silicon as the embrittling agent responsible for the tensile failure of a Pt-30Rh-8W alloy. Silicon was found to be segregated on the grain boundaries of the alloy, and to have a concentration gradient along them from the outer surfaces toward the interior of the sample.
