Abstract
The fractographic results of stress corrosion cracking of a 316L type austenitic stainless steel in MgCl 2 are in good agreement with the corrosion enhanced plasticity model. Based on the ideas of this model, the research of an improvement of the SCC resistance is attempted. It is shown that a cyclic prehardening can delay the initiation of the first microcracks and decrease the crack propagation velocity.
