Effect of hydrogen on ductility and toughness in heavily drawn steel wire

$15.00

The effect of hydrogen on ductility and toughness in heavily drawn steel wire was investigated and the following was confirmed: (1) only heavily drawn wire with true strain above 2.2 (= total reduction of cross-sectional area above 88 percent degrade reduction in area, elongation and torsional number to fracture, (2) the results of torsional tests are more susceptible to hydrogen than those of tensile tests.
