More complex than just corrosion cracking, Liquid Metal Embrittlement (LME) is a phenomenon where certain ductile metals become brittle when exposed to specific liquid metals, leading to sudden and catastrophic failure under stress. This occurs through the rapid penetration of the liquid metal along the grain boundaries of the solid metal, thereby weakening interatomic bonds and facilitating crack initiation and propagation. LME is highly dependent on the combination of the solid and liquid metals involved, as well as factors like temperature and applied stress. Common industrial examples include the embrittlement of steel by liquid zinc or aluminum during hot-dip galvanizing processes.
