Do magnesium alloys suffer environmentally assisted cracking?
In this work, presented at CORROSION 2014, we investigated the hydrogen embrittlement and stress corrosion cracking of magnesium alloy AZ31B in chloride solutions.

High strength low alloy steels and hydrogen – Presentation
How can we prevent cracking of high strength low alloy steels when exposed to hydrogen? Take a look at my presentation at the 2015 Robust Materialvalg i Oljeindustrien conference.
Corrigendum – Sulfide stress cracking of nickel-containing low-alloy steels
Corrigendum of our paper entitled: “Sulfide stress cracking of nickel-containing low-alloy steels”.
ISO 15156-3 will set new restrictions on UNS S174000 (17-4PH)
This article describes the results of a recent NACE MR0175/ ISO 15156 ballot that imposes stringent maximum allowable stress values.
Sulfide stress cracking of nickel-containing low-alloy steels
Low alloy steels with a nickel content greater than 1% are not allowed in sour service applications. This paper reviews the effect of nickel on the hydrogen embrittlement performance of low alloy steels.
Hydrogen Embrittlement of Nickel Alloy Steels
This post illustrates a possible sulfide stress cracking mechanisms at the open circuit potential for low alloy steels.
