The state-of-the-art report consist of an overview and a summary of the mechanical behaviour of pipeline steels (in the range of X42-X70) when exposed to electrochemical charging and gaseous hydrogen environment. Experimental data from tensile-, fracture -and fatigue tests in air and hydrogen...
It is well known that ferrous materials can be damaged by absorption of hydrogen. If a sufficient quantity of hydrogen penetrates into the material, static fracture and the material's fatigue performances can be affected negatively, in particular causing a reduction in the material crack growth...
