Fissure associée à la fragilité du matériau au voisinage de la température ambiante. [Définition normalisée par la CSA International.] 3, record 1, French, - fissure%20%C3%A0%20froid
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
L'hydrogène en sursaturation dans un acier en cours de solidification tend à se dégager, mais celle-ci est généralement terminée avant que la majeure partie de l'hydrogène se soit libérée [...] La présence du gaz, éventuellement conjuguée avec celle de la martensite, peut se traduire par la fissuration du métal de base. C'est la raison pour laquelle de telles fissures sont appelées fissures sous cordon [underbead cracking]. Comme elles apparaissent en même temps que la martensite lors de la dernière phase du refroidissement, on les appelle également fissures à froid. 4, record 1, French, - fissure%20%C3%A0%20froid
