Abstract
Carbon steel piping and tubing can be degraded by hydrogen uptake. The hydrogen permeation method is commonly applied to testing and qualification steel in response to hydrogen atom diffusion. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) has recently been proposed because it is a more straightforward method than permeation. A comprehensive study was conducted to investigate whether these two methods are comparable. A model alloy of SA 210 grade was studied. The study involved preparing specimens with varying microstructures through different heat treatments. Subsequently, metallographic analysis was conducted on each microstructural variation, followed by mechanical testing to evaluate the changes obtained before and after the hydrogen absorption test. The CV method consisted of three steps: CV before H absorption to search for a reference voltammogram, H charging, and CV after H absorption to determine the after-charge voltammogram. Electrochemical hydrogen permeation tests were performed in a Devanathan–Stachursky double cell. A comparison of the CV and permeation methods revealed that they show pretty similar results in evaluating the interaction between steel and hydrogen. Permeation methods provide quantitative results, while CV offers more qualitative insights. Both methods show that the quenched steel has the slowest hydrogen diffusion rate compared with those in normalized and base material conditions.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the Journal of Mechanical Science and Technology is to provide an international forum for the publication and dissemination of original work that contributes to the understanding of the main and related disciplines of mechanical engineering, either empirical or theoretical. The Journal covers the whole spectrum of mechanical engineering, which includes, but is not limited to, Materials and Design Engineering, Production Engineering and Fusion Technology, Dynamics, Vibration and Control, Thermal Engineering and Fluids Engineering.
Manuscripts may fall into several categories including full articles, solicited reviews or commentary, and unsolicited reviews or commentary related to the core of mechanical engineering.
