Abstract

Abstract Permeation, plating, and baking tests were carried out to determine the susceptibility of a newly developed steel (BHS-1) to absorb and diffuse hydrogen in comparison to the currently used type 1022 (UNS G10220) and type 4037 (UNS G40370) steels. The effective diffusion coefficient (Deff) of hydrogen in BHS-1 was slightly lower than in the traditional steels; however, the ability to absorb hydrogen during plating and to release hydrogen during baking was comparable. Acidic and alkaline zinc-plating processes dissolved similar amounts of hydrogen into all of the studied steels.
