About this document

Hydrogen Compatibility in Type 304 Steel by nktiah1207 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This technical report summarizes information on the hydrogen compatibility of austenitic stainless steels Types 304 and 304L. It discusses their composition, permeability, solubility, and effects of gaseous hydrogen on mechanical properties. Type 304 stainless steel is susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement, though warm working and additions of nickel and chromium can improve resistance. Notched tensile specimens demonstrate substantial reductions in ductility and strength when exposed to hydrogen.
