Evaluation of hydrogen embrittlement in Cr-Mo pressure vessel steels. Topical report No. 1
Description:
Commercial 2-1/4 Cr-1 Mo low strength steel specimens have been tested to measure their susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement in an environment of H/sub 2/S at 50 psig. It was found that two factors, viz. (i) the plane stress zones on the crack front in compact tension specimens and (ii) incubation time effects, seriously confounded measurements on these steels when tested by conventional rising load experiments. Because of the incubation time effect, K/sub or/ (the stress intensity at which…
