JoungHyun La (Hyundai steel)23/06/2021, 08:30Hydrogen EmbrittlementOral PresentationRecently, the tendency to improve the fuel efficiency by reducing the weight of the car body and using advanced high strength steel(AHSS) has affected the automotive industry. In order to secure the strength of the AHSS above 1Gpa, various elements such as Mn, Si, and Al are added. Additionally, annealing process is performed at high temperature to form an austenite phase and at high hydrogen...Go to contribution page

Mélodie MANDY (CRM group)23/06/2021, 08:50Hydrogen EmbrittlementOral Presentation
In advanced high strength automotive steels, small amounts of diffusible hydrogen can lead to a deterioration of mechanical performances, especially a loss of ductility, in the simultaneous presence of internal stresses and of a sensitive microstructure. In the hot-dip galvanizing process, hydrogen is mainly absorbed during high temperature operations in hydrogen-containing atmospheres before...

Sven Erik Hörnström (SSAB EMEA AB)23/06/2021, 09:10Hydrogen EmbrittlementOral PresentationHigh strength steels are increasingly used, particularly by the automotive industry where reduction of vehicle weight and emission of greenhouse gases have high priority. With increasing strength, the material becomes more sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement. Hydrogen can enter the steel during the production process, for instance when electro galvanizing. The combination of a sensitive...Go to contribution page

Ines Traxler (CEST Competence Center for Electrochemical Surface Technology, Linz, Austria)23/06/2021, 09:30Hydrogen EmbrittlementOral Presentation
One of the most important aspects for a material used in automotive industry is the reliability in service regarding corrosion resistance, safety and functionality. However, hydrogen embrittlement can cause a dramatic deterioration of mechanical properties, especially in case of advanced high strength steels (AHSS). Thus, it is essential to clarify the mechanisms of hydrogen insertion into the...
