- Abstract
- Hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) resistance of two high strength low alloy (HSLA) steel plates equivalent to API X70 grade was evaluated in various test solutions with different H2S partial pressures and pH values. Results showed that H2S partial pressure is the key parameter affecting HIC resistance. Hydrogen permeation rate was affected by both H2S partial pressure and pH of test solutions, whereas the apparent hydrogen diffusivity was determined mainly by pH value in case of H2S partial pressure less than 0.1 atm. HIC in the steels primarily nucleated at inclusions and/or clusters containing the Al and Ca oxides. HIC resistance was determined by diffusible hydrogen amount with different microstructures.
