6、ethod for Microindentation Hardness of Mate-rials3. Summary of Test Method3.1 A thin disk metallic specimen is subjected to an increas-ing gas pressure at constant rate until failure (bursting orcracking of the disk). The embrittlement of the material can beevaluated by comparing the rupture pressur
7、es of identical diskspecimens in hydrogen (PH2) and in a reference inert gas suchas helium (PHe) (1, 2).23.2 The ratio PHe/PH2can be used to evaluate the suscepti-bility of the metallic material to gaseous hydrogen embrittle-ment. The ratio is dependent on the pressurization rate. A ratioof 1 or les
8、s indicates the material is not susceptible to hydrogenembrittlement. A ratio greater than 1 indicates that the materialis susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement and the susceptibilityincreases as the ratio increases.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method will provide a guide for the choice ofme
9、tallic materials for applications in high pressure hydrogengas.4.2 The value of the PHe/PH2ratio will be a relativeindication of the severity of degradation of the mechanicalproperties to be expected in hydrogen.5. Apparatus5.1 A basic test system shall consist of the following items:5.1.1 Test Cell
10、, consists of two flanges as shown schemati-cally in Fig. 1.5.1.1.1 The test cell shall befabricated from materials suchas 316 stainless steel in the annealed condition that are notsusceptible to HGE (3, 4).5.1.1.2 The seals shall be elastomer O-rings for heliumtesting and hydrogen testing at rates
11、of 10 bar/min (145psig/min) or higher. For hydrogen tests at a lower rate, indiumO-rings shall be used.5.1.1.3 An evaluation port (Item 1 in Fig. 1) on the lowerflange is used to check gas purity and adjust pressurization rate.5.1.2 The test cell is pressurized with hydrogen or heliumthrough a pneum
12、atic system. Fig. 2 schematically illustrates thepneumatic system.5.1.2.1 The pressurization rate shall be adjustable in thesystem.

One specimen is
17、 to be tested at thepredetermined pressurization rate in helium or hydrogen asprescribed in 8.2.3.7.2 The specimens for the test cell, illustrated in Fig. 1, havea diameter of 58 mm (2.28 in.) and a thickness of 0.75 mm(0.030 in).

Interpretation of Results10.1 The maximum value of the PHe/PH2ratio is used toevaluate the susceptibility of the test material to hydrogen gasembrittlement.10.2 If the maximum ratio PHe/PH2is equal to 1, the
28、material is considered to be not susceptible to hydrogenembrittlement. If the ratio is higher than 2, the material isconsidered to be sensitive to hydrogen, and provisions must betaken to avoid exposure to hydrogen. If the ratio is between 1and 2, embrittlement may be expected after long exposure to
29、hydrogen in any form.11.
