About this document

Hydrogen Effects on High-Strength Steels by Nattapong Pongboot is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses the effects of hydrogen on high-strength steels. It finds that hydrogen increases the susceptibility of steels to embrittlement and cracking as the strength of the steel increases. Hydrogen causes a loss of tensile ductility in steels even at concentrations below 1 ppm. The effects are more severe at higher steel strengths and include reduced elongation, reduction of area, and delayed failure under load. Hydrogen environments like gas also reduce ductility, with effects depending on
