Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is believed to be the principal cause for the cracks observed in brass components used in gas distribution network. In this framework, it is of interest to develop accelerated tests to determine the SCC susceptibility of the brass used in the gas transfer valves. This requires to understand the mechanisms explaining the observed damage. The present study aimed to contribute to a better understanding of the corrosion and SCC behaviour of alpha-beta brass.
