Abstract

The effect of pre-strain on the hydrogen embrittlement (HE) susceptibility of DP600 steel was studied by means of slow strain-rate tensile (SSRT) test, electrochemical permeation technique and fractograph observation of fracture surface. The results indicate that the HE susceptibility of DP600 steel increases with the increasing pre-strain when the level of pre-strain is below 15%, and then tends to stable when the pre-strain exceeds 15%. The pre-strain increases dislocation density and the amount of effective hydrogen in the steel, but decreases the effective diffusivity (D_eff) of hydrogen, so that the HE susceptibility increases. However, when the pre-strain increases to above 15%, the HE susceptibility gradually becomes stable due to the decrease of diffusion and aggregation of hydrogen, which resulted from the dislocation tangle.

Key words: DP600 steel pre-strain SSRT electrochemical permeation technique HE susceptibility diffusion of hydrogen
