crevice corrosion


Explanation:
Crevice corrosion is one of the main reasons that weldments of stainless steel are not to be used in submerged conditions. Almost all types of SS are subject to crevice corrosion, even in the un-welded condition. Welded SS in wet or submerged service is prone to this condition. For example, welded SS should never be used below the waterline on ships. SS should always be in well ventilated and exposed areas.
