Ba. Kolachev et al., EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON THE SUSCEPTIBILITY OF VT6CH ALLOY TO HYDROGEN EMBRITTLEMENT, Metal science and heat treatment, 38(11-12), 1996, pp. 531-535
Alloys of the VT6 type are used for parts operating in the temperature
range from 450 - 500 degrees C to cryogenic temperatures. At room tem
perature and below, alloys of this type can develop hydrogen embrittle
ment. This paper is devoted to the effect of hydrogen on the mechanica
l properties of the alloy for temperatures ranging from room to that o
f liquid helium.
