Abstract

The effect of hydrogen charging on dislocation multiplication in super duplex stainless steel was investigated. Steel samples were pre-strained and charged with hydrogen for 10days. Dislocation density was then measured using neutron diffraction. It is found that dislocation density multiplies by about one order of magnitude in samples with less than 5% pre-strain, but remains the same level in samples with pre-strain level of 10% and above.
