Electroplating and cathodic pickling as causes of hydrogen embrittlement

$15.00

Information is presented on the damage done to steel by hydrogen. The roles of electroplating and cathode pickling in hydrogen embrittlement are detailed. A series of studies on brittleness were performed on stainless steel in which the effects of pickling and temperature, electrolyte acidity or alkalinity, promotors, inhibitors and plating materials were tested; the results are presented.
