What is it about?

This new Chapter 7 - Hydrogen Permeation and Hydrogen-Induced Cracking of The Handbook of Environmental Degradation of Materials, Third Edition (ISBN: 978-0-323-52472-8) describes hydrogen permeation and hydrogen-induced damage in metals and alloys. It also discusses hydrogen evolution kinetics, theoretical diffusion solutions, and basic hydrogen permeation models. Hydrogen embrittlement, hydrogen-induced cracking, hydrogen blistering, and hydrogen stress cracking are also discussed to show the relationship between hydrogen permeation and hydrogen-induced cracking mechanisms

Why is it important?

Hydrogen evolution and permeation occur during electroplating, corrosion, and cathodic protection. Hydrogen accumulates in areas of high stress and may reach a critical concentration, potentially causing fractures and catastrophic damage. Finally, various techniques used to prevent and control hydrogen damage of metals and alloys are described. This is Chapter 7 - Hydrogen Permeation and Hydrogen-Induced Cracking of The Handbook of Environmental Degradation of Materials, Third Edition (ISBN: 978-0-323-52472-8, https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780323524728) published by Elsevier. New chapters include topics on Hydrogen Permeation and Hydrogen Induced Cracking (Chapter 7 - Hydrogen Permeation and Hydrogen-Induced Cracking), Weathering of Plastics, the Environmental Degradation of Ceramics and Advanced Materials, Antimicrobial Layers, Coatings, and the Corrosion of Pipes in Drinking Water Systems. The Handbook of Environmental Degradation of Materials, Third Edition, explains how to measure, analyze and control environmental degradation for a wide range of industrial materials, including metals, polymers, ceramics, concrete, wood, and textiles exposed to environmental factors, such as weather, seawater, and fire. Expert contributors to this book provide a wealth of insider knowledge and engineering expertise that complements their explanations and advice. Case Studies from areas such as pipelines, tankers, packaging, and chemical processing equipment ensure that the reader understands the practical measures that can be put in place to save money, lives, and the environment.

Perspectives

Models are used as a diagnostic tool to determine the effectiveness of various metals and alloys as hydrogen permeation inhibitors. It then explains experimental atomic hydrogen permeation transient determination and hydrogen absorption rate constants and diffusivity evaluation into metals using case studies.
