Popis: Nucleation of microcracks, their growth and coalescence are analysed in powder metallurgy (PM). Fe–1·5Cr–0·2Mo–0·7C steel by fractography allied to surface replica microscopy – at several stress levels as the maximum tensile stress in three-point bend specimens was raised to 99·6% of the transverse rupture strength TRS of 1397 MPa. The fatigue limit in this material is ∼240 MPa, at which stress level no microcracks were detected in static loading. Numerous microcracks, ranging in size from
