Microstructural Effects in Hydrogen Embrittlement of Steel

  • 211 Accesses

Abstract

As a help to steel design, microstructural and compositional effects on hydrogen embrittlement are reviewed for typical steel types. Control of a specific microstructural factor occasionally affects other factors, and deformation microstructures and cracking processes associated with observed degradation are remarked to characterize hydrogen effects.
