Internal hydrogen-induced subcritical crack growth in stainless steels

Three types of stainless steel--austenitic, ferritic and duplex--were cathodically precharged with hydrogen at high temperature in a molten salt electrolyte. Constant strain rate tests and sustained load tests were performed in air at temperatures from 0 to 50$\sp\circ$C with hydrogen contents up to 41 wt. ppm. The electrical potential drop method with optical calibration was used to monitor the crack growth position, continuously.
