| This suggests that the SEBS particle works well as a reinforcing filler even for the embrittled PC matrix. |
| The forward and aft fracture surfaces were held together by re-solidified metal and a few embrittled wires, which separated during initial handling. |
| Consequently, the material is embrittled by impurity segregation to interfacial boundaries. |
| The organic materials in grounds, gilding, paint films, and varnishes become embrittled with age and can no longer flex to accommodate movement in the support. |
| Due to the fact that the wires had been embrittled by the fire, any bending of the wires during wreckage recovery likely would have resulted in their brittle fracture. |
| This is caused by voltage flashovers on the spark plug neck, which in turn are down to leaking or embrittled spark plug connectors. |
