Abstract
The coupling effect of hydrogen and NbCrN precipitate on pitting initiation and propagation of stainless steel were studied. After hydrogen charging, HMT results showed that more hydrogen was enriched on and around the precipitates. According to In-situ SKPFM and immersion results, the Volta potential of the precipitates is higher than that of the matrix before and after hydrogen charging. However, after hydrogen charging, a low Volta potential region appeared around the precipitates. The enrichment of hydrogen around the precipitates, the low potential around the precipitates, and consequent galvanic coupling effect lead to pits preferentially initiating and developing around the precipitates.
