[MW:12788] RE: Liquid metal

Hello,

Please see the article on "LME". It would be of interest to
you.Embrittlement typically initiates in the liquid phase, low melting
phases will generally segregate along the grain boundary upon solidification
and initiate cracking. The elements mentioned below are common culprits, but
I've come across "copper induced " embrittlement also.

Usually one has to be careful on these elements either while welding or
during application of paints or any high temperature applications.

Thanks.
