Hydrogen Embrittlement is the phenomenon in which ductile material absorbs the hydrogen and become Brittle over the period of time.
hydrogen is induced in metal in so many different ways. during forming process, corrosion process alternate stress cycle process get internal and external process material is responsible for hydrogen deposit.
Once the hydrogen get induced in the material which cause the material became harder and harder over the period of time, alternate stress cycle on the material leads the crack propagation and brittle fracture is happens in the ductile material.
prevention are taken in such cases, for Hydrogen Embrittlement environment the material hardness value plays significant role, usually for that material hardness value kept low. this can be achieved during heat treatment process.
This chart shows how pressure and temperature are affecting the material selection for the Hydrogen Embrittlement Environment.
