The hydrogen embrittlement (HE) behaviors of a CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy (HEA), 304 stainless steel (304SS) and IN718 alloys were studied and compared via electrochemical hydrogen pre-charging, slow strain rate tensile tests, and fracture surface analysis. The results demonstrate that the HEA exhibited the greatest HE-resistance, followed by 304SS and then IN718 alloy, when the alloys were charged at 1.79 mA cm−2 for 24 h and 48 h, and 179 mA cm−2 for 2 h. Hydrogen-induced reduction in ductility was observed for 304SS and IN718 alloys, whereas the hydrogen-affected fracture strain of the HEA was dependent on the hydrogen charging time. The resistance to HE was improved at a short hydrogen charging time (24 h), but reduced at a long charging time (48 h). This is attributed to the competing mechanisms between hydrogen-enhanced twin formation and HEDE (hydrogen-enhanced decohesion).

The effect of surface roughness on hydrogen-induced blister behavior in pure iron was explored using optical microscopy and microcomputerized tomography. Hydrogen was introduced into the samples by electrochemical precharging methods with various hydrogen charging times. It is found that grinded surface exhibits higher roughness and compressive residual stress compared to those of polished surface. With increasing hydrogen charging time, hydrogen-induced blister height, blister width and blister area fraction increase, regardless of the grinded surface and polished surface. Further, hydrogen blister height and width of grinded surface are comparative to polished surface under the same hydrogen charging time. However, the blister area fraction and the number of blister on polished surface are considerably higher than the grinded surface, indicating that polished surface is more susceptible to the formation of blisters than that of grinded surface, both of surface and interior of the samples. This is dominantly rationalized in terms of the suppression effect of hydrogen invasion in grinded surfaces due to their higher residual compressive stress and higher dislocation density.

A simple, physically based model is developed to quantitatively predict the degradation of hydrogen on the crack growth critical stress intensity factor (CSIF) of metals. The model is formulated by combining a microscopically shielded Griffith criterion (MSGC) model for plasticity-induced cleavage fracture and thermodynamics decohesion (TDD) theory for hydrogen-enhanced interface decohesion. The hydrogen-influenced CSIF is described as a function of the intrinsic CSIF (hydrogen-free), initial hydrogen concentration (solubility), hydrogen trap binding energy and crack tip stress. All parameters in the model can be determined with a physical basis and the model is successfully validated by comparison with published experimental data.

In this study, the interfacial cracking mechanism of Cr-coated Zircaloy cladding tubes was investigated through a combination of tensile testing, advanced microstructural characterization, and first-principle calculations. The results demonstrate the presence of an interlayer (33 nm) between the Cr coating and the Zr substrate, which consists of Cr and O elements. In comparison with the coherent Cr/interlayer interface, the incoherent interlayer/Zr interface is conducive to crack initiation and propagation, resulting from local high strain concentration generated by incompatible deformation between the interlayer and Zr substrate, and O-induced reductions in Cr/Zr interfacial cohesive strength.
