Abstract
Addition of trace lanthanum salt in acid solution was found to be enhanced inhibitory effect on hydrogen permeation to X70 pipeline steel. The hydrogen permeation curves were performed to show that the addition of La 3+ inhibits hydrogen permeation by accelerating the recombination of the adsorbed hydrogen atoms and the desorption of hydrogen molecule, which decrease the subsurface hydrogen concentration. The inhibitory effect of La 3+ involves the film formation process. Moreover, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analysis (EIS) depict that the inhibitive effect is caused by the catalysis of the recombination-desorption-evolution of adsorbed hydrogen atoms by La(OH) 3 /La 2 O 3 . This provides a novel solution for the prevention of hydrogen-induced cracking of high-strength steel, which often causes catastrophic accidents.
