摘要: In the present work, slow displacement rate tensile tests were performed to find out influence of ageing condition and hydrogen-charging on notched strength fracture characteristics T-250 maraging steel aged at various conditions. The embrittling species in environment was accessed by comparing measured properties air, gaseous hydrogen H2S-saturated solution. diffusivity, permeation flux apparent solubility specimens determined electrochemical method, correlated well with microstructures mechanical property. results indicated that peak-aged (H900) specimen highly sensitive embrittlement even hydrogen. contrast, over-aged (H1100) comprising reverted austenite incoherent precipitates could trap large amount atoms, resulting decreased permeability susceptibility. solution-annealed had highest diffusion coefficient lowest quantity trapped among specimens, showing high susceptibility sulfide stress corrosion cracking. presence notches, atoms prone segregate grain boundaries, formation intergranular fracture.
