Not knowing the particulars of the bridge CP system in place, hydrogen embrittlement is possible but it sounds more like stress corrosion cracking is the major culprit.
- refurb 11y agoWhere would the hydrogen come from in a situation like this? I know aluminum will produce hydrogen under basic or acid condition, but steel doesn't (I think).
- Someone 11y agoI think from a reaction 2Fe + 3H2O -> Fe2O3 + 3H2 See http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2005-12/1134348446.Ch.r.html http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2005-12/1134348446.Ch.r...
