Abstract

Abstract Production volumes of advanced high strength steels (AHSS) are growing rapidly due to material and energy savings they provide in a number of application areas. In order to use their potential fully, it is necessary to minimize any danger of unexpected failures caused by hydrogen embrittlement. It is possible only if deeper understanding of underlying mechanisms is obtained through further research. Besides description of main grades of AHSS and mechanisms of HE, this paper reviews available tools for determination of hydrogen content and susceptibility to HE focusing on atmospheric conditions. Techniques such as slow strain rate testing, constant load testing, electrochemical permeation technique, scanning Kelvin probe and scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy have already been used to study the effect of hydrogen entered under atmospheric exposure conditions. Nanoindentation, hydrogen microprint technique, thermal desorption spectroscopy, Ag decoration or secondary ion mass spectrometry can be also conducted after atmospheric exposure.
