Liquid metal embrittlement to the fire was caused by the failure of a heat exchanger (cold box) inlet nozzle in the liquids recovery plant. The failure of the inlet nozzle was due to liquid metal embrittlement of the train B aluminium cold box by elemental mercury. Liquid metal embrittlement plays a central role in the novel "Killer Instinct" by Joseph Finder. In the film "Big Hero 6", Honey Lemon, voiced by Genesis Rodriguez, uses liquid metal embrittlement in her lab. Liquid metal embrittlement Liquid metal embrittlement, also known as liquid metal induced embrittlement, is a phenomenon of practical importance, where certain ductile metals
Temperature dependence of liquid viscosity and applies over a large temperature and viscosity range: where "T" is absolute temperature in kelvins, formula_26 is the kinematic viscosity in centistokes, formula_27 is the zero order modified Bessel function of the second kind, and "A" and "B" are liquid specific values. This form should not be applied to ammonia or water viscosity over a large temperature range. For liquid metal viscosity as a function of temperature, Seeton proposed: Temperature dependence of liquid viscosity The temperature dependence of liquid viscosity is the phenomenon by which liquid viscosity tends to decrease (or, alternatively, its "fluidity" tends to increase) as its
