Abstract: | To investigate the effects of a high-pressure hydrogen environment in the elastic and plastic deformation regions, we performed slow strain-rate tensile tests of iron-based superalloy A286 at 150 °C by switching the atmosphere from 70 MPa hydrogen to air during the tests. The relationship between the nominal strain exposed to a hydrogen environment and the relative reduction in area (RRA) revealed that in the plastic deformation region, the RRA value decreased gradually depending on the nominal strain exposed to hydrogen, but in the elastic deformation region, the RRA value decreased rapidly. The RRA value further decreased when the stress cycle was applid in the elastic region. The fracture surface exhibited an intragranular slip plane fracture similar to that of the hydrogen-charged specimen. These phenomena suggest that the lattice decohesion theory is dominant in the elastic region, where hydrogen embrittlement occurs owing to an increase in the content of dissolved hydrogen. |
