| Consequently, the material is embrittled by impurity segregation to interfacial boundaries. |
|
| This alloy is, however, not satisfactory for use at elevated temperatures because it is age hardenable, and becomes embrittled. |
|
| It is extremely important that the salts be free of all traces of sulfur, so that the work does not become embrittled. |
|
| This results in a film base that shrinks, becomes embrittled, cockles and ultimately leads to emulsion loss. |
|
| The stained portion of the surface was a blocky, intergranular fracture typical of embrittled steels. |
|
| This is caused by voltage flashovers on the spark plug neck, which in turn are down to leaking or embrittled spark plug connectors. |
|
| 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. |
|
| The forward and aft fracture surfaces were held together by re-solidified metal and a few embrittled wires, which separated during initial handling. |
|
| 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 suggests that the SEBS particle works well as a reinforcing filler even for the embrittled PC matrix. |
|
| Elongation to break was measured to determine decreases that would indicate embrittled surfaces or degraded mechanical properties. |
|
| The silver objects tended to be more fragmentary than the gold, as they had been embrittled by excessive cold working. |
|
| They have the obligation to fully analyse how the community spirit, the solidarity and the mutual confidence within the business entity will be strengthened or embrittled by the business entity's compensation policies. |
|
| Unfortunately, the existing network of pipelines is constructed mainly of ferrous materials that are often embrittled by atomic hydrogen. |
|
| Consuming fewer calories could adversely affect a crew's productivity and health, especially in micro-gravity, which causes muscle wastage and embrittled bones, among other things. |
|
| The rubber hose was under constant stress in the areas where cracking occurred and the material became embrittled, which caused cracks to form over time. |
|
| In a recent study, equations from theoretical models were incorporated into casting simulation software to use the simulated cooling curves to locate embrittled volumes. |
