Abstract
By performing microstructural characterization, tensile testing and failure analysis, the effects of electrochemical H-charging on microstructure and mechanical behaviour of two as-cast Mg-8Li (in wt%) based alloys were investigated and compared. Due to the in-situ formation of I-phase, the failure elongation ratio for Mg-8Li-6Zn-1Y alloy was 31.2 % and its hydrogen embrittlement (HE) susceptibility was about 1/4 that of Mg-8Li alloy after H-charging for 24 h. Moreover, the preferential location of H-induced pores transferred from two matrix phases to I-phase/matrix eutectic pockets due to the preferential H absorption of I-phase, resulting in the higher HE resistance of Mg-8Li-6Zn-1Y alloy.
