English term or phrase: crazing

Definition from Pro Plastics Inc.:
Minute lines appearing in or near the surface of materials such as plastics, usually resulting as a response to environment. Crazing cannot be felt by running a fingernail across if (if the fingernail catches, it is a crack).

Example sentence(s):

All concrete products and many natural stones, under varying conditions of moisture and temperature, are frequently subject to crazing. A manufacturer careful in proportioning of designs and watchful of compaction techniques and curing methods will minimize the likelihood of crazing as a result of manufacturing causes. Cast Stone Institute, Inc.
Crazing is generally undesirable; however, certain glazes, referred to as crackle glazes, are specifically composed to develop a controlled form of crazing. About.com
Crazing occurs when the surface of a moulding is stretched beyond its limit, due to localised surface stresses being too high at some time during moulding, finishing, or use. Performance Plastics Ltd

obrazovanje kapilarne(ih) pukotine(a)

Definition from own experience or research:
Kapilarne pukotine (ili mikro pukotine) u materijalu (npr. malteru, kamenu, a i u metalima, plastici itd) su tanke pukotine u koje tečnosti (npr. voda) mogu da prodru i da se šire pod uticajem kapilarnih sila.

Example sentence(s):

Sledeći problem ravnih krovova je toplotni stres i umor materijala, koji je posledica velikih promena toplote na površini izmedju dana cca 700C i noći cca 150C. Neprekidnim razvlačenjem i mrskanjem dolazi do isparavanja elastičnih sastojaka asfaltne krovine, do stvaranja kapilarnih pukotina, skraćivanja roka upotrebe, ali uglavnom dolazi do oštećenja dilatačnih detalja i curenja kroz krovove. - SuperTherm
