Hydrogen blistering is a type of hydrogen-induced failure produced when hydrogen atoms enter low-strength steels that have macroscopic defects, such as laminations. The defects in the steel (void spaces) provide places for hydrogen atoms to combine, forming gaseous molecular hydrogen (H2) that can build enough pressure to produce blistering. Hydrogen blistering is a problem mainly inContinue Reading
