Pasquale Cavaliere: Hydrogen Embrittlement in Metals and Alloys, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book provides a complete description of hydrogen technologies from the basic theoretical underpinnings to the different production routes for various applications. It summarizes the most recent research findings with respect to theory and the broad array of industrial technologies currently in place as well as those under development with high potential. Special attention is given to the hydrogen embrittlement mechanisms at room and high temperatures as well as problems related to hydrogen in liquid and high-pressure compressed states. The author further describes the hydrogen diffusion embrittlement issues related to different types of metallic materials from steel to light alloys to nikel-based superalloys.

• Describes hydrogen embrittlement in steels, nickel alloys and titanium alloys with industrial case Studies
• Introduces the role of hydrogen as the new energy vector for the future
• Provides the basic physical and chemical theoretical basics of hydrogen interaction with the metallic structures
