In fig 14 and 15 you say that IMCs are sticking out , and as I can see it, 
they are needles.

Inge




Hi Inge,
1. Not a good simile—the steel in concrete only adds strength in tension, 
not compression, it is not brittle, and it is round; IMCs are NOT 
needles—they only appear that way when the platelets are sectioned at acute 
angles; the adhesion of the concrete to steel is very high, not so solder to 
IMC.
2. Crystal growth at times appears [at least] chaotic.
3. I think it is the basic material properties—similar to all crystal 
structure—high modulus and little ductility.
4. Certainly the presence of the constituent metals is required—Margareta 
Nylen in Sweden has shown that when all the Sn was used up in forming IMCs, 
no more dissolution took place—elegant experiment; solidification speed 
certainly would have an impact, I would think impurities as well.
Skoal,
Werner
