| Because of the high solubilities in niobium and tantalum, these embrittling contaminants normally do not present problems in fabrication. |
| Recently the titanium industry has become aware that hydrogen is a major factor in embrittling titanium. |
| Also discussed are nanoscale thermal degradation, corrosion, flammability, embrittling, and fatigue. |
| This allows for improvement in the strength without embrittling the plastic. |
| Although the grafted nano-silica brings about an embrittling effect during tensile tests, as revealed by Fig. |
| We conclude that reduced MOR and IB seen in remediated PB are the result of residual oxalic acid either embrittling the fiber or interfering with UF resin adhesion. |
