Recent studies have shown that the addition of hydrogen to SUS310S stainless steel (Fe-24Cr-19Ni, mass%) simultaneously enhances both strength and ductility, indicating a phenomenon contrary to the conventional understanding of hydrogen embrittlement. In this study, we investigated the underlying mechanism through 
neutron diffraction experiments during tensile deformation using TAKUMI at the MLF of J-PARC. The results revealed that solid-solution strengthening by hydrogen plays the most significant role in improving the mechanical properties. Solute hydrogen atoms distort the lattice to suppress dislocation motion, thereby increasing the strength. The raised stress in the hydrogen charged sample enables the onset of deformation twinning at a smaller strain compared to the non-hydrogen charged sample. Consequently, the twinning-induced plasticity effect contributes more significantly to work hardening and the improvement of uniform elongation due to the solid-solution strengthening by hydrogen. These findings suggest a new pathway for the effective utilization of hydrogen in austenitic steels.

However, its impacts on the relevant lattice defects evolution (
, dislocations, stacking faults, and twins) during deformation remains unclear. This study compared the tensile deformation behavior in an Fe-24Cr-19Ni (mass%) austenitic steel with 7600 atom ppm hydrogen-charged (H-charged) and without hydrogen-charged (non-charged) using neutron diffraction. Hydrogen effects on the lattice expansion, solid-solution strengthening, stacking fault probability, stacking fault energy, dislocation density, and strain/stress for twin evolution were quantitatively evaluated to link them with the macroscale mechanical properties. The H-charged sample showed improvements in yield stress, flow stress, and uniform elongation, consistent with earlier findings. However, solute hydrogen exhibited minimal influences on the evolution of dislocation and stacking fault. This fact contradicts the previous reports on hydrogen-enhanced dislocation and stacking fault evolutions, the latter of which can be responsible for the enhancement of twinning. The strain for twin evolution was smaller in the H-charged sample compared to the non-charged one. Nevertheless, when evaluated as the onset stress for twin evolution, there was minimal change between the two samples. These findings suggest that the increase in flow stress due to the solid-solution strengthening by hydrogen is a root cause of accelerated deformation twinning at a smaller strain, leading to an enhanced work-hardening rate and improved uniform elongation.

被引用回数：22 パーセンタイル：89.23(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The present study aimed at strengthening prior austenite grain boundary (PAGB) cohesive energy using carbon segregation and investigated the effect of carbon segregation at PAGB on the microscopic crack propagation behavior of hydrogen-related intergranular fractures in high-strength martensitic steels. At the low hydrogen content (below 0.2 wt. ppm), the fracture initiation toughness (
) and tearing modulus (
), corresponding to crack growth resistance, were significantly improved by carbon segregation. In contrast, and did not change by carbon segregation at the high hydrogen content (above 0.5 wt. ppm). Considering the non-linear relationship between the toughness properties and the PAGB cohesive energy, the experimentally evaluated toughness properties ( and ) and the GB cohesive energy previously calculated by first-principles calculations were semi-quantitatively consistent even at the high hydrogen content. The microstructure observation confirmed that the plastic deformation associated with crack propagation, such as the local ductile fracture of uncracked ligaments and the formation of dislocation cell structures/nano-voids, played an important role in the non-linear relationship between the toughness properties and PAGB cohesive energy.

Hydrogen embrittlement has long been an obstacle to the development of safe infrastructure. However, in contrast to hydrogen's embrittling effect, recent research has revealed that the addition of hydrogen improves both the strength and uniform elongation of AISI Type 310S austenitic stainless steel. A detailed understanding of how hydrogen affects the deformation mechanism of this steel could pave the way for the development of more advanced materials with superior properties. In the present study, neutron diffraction experiments were conducted on Type 310S steel with and without hydrogen-charged to investigate the effect of hydrogen on the deformation mechanism. In addition to the effect of solid-solution strengthening by hydrogen, the q-value, a parameter representing the proportion of edge and screw dislocations in the accumulated dislocations, was quantitatively evaluated using CMWP analysis on neutron diffraction patterns. The comparison of q-values between the hydrogen-charged and non-charged samples reveals that hydrogen has minimal effect on dislocation character in Type 310S steel.

被引用回数：41 パーセンタイル：91.65(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)In this study, the deformation microstructure of hydrogen-charged ferritic-pearlitic 2Mn-0.1C steel was characterized using SEM-BSE, SEM-EBSD, TEM, and neutron diffraction. The microscopic mechanism of hydrogen-related quasi-cleavage fracture along the 
planes was also discussed. It was found that hydrogen increased the relative velocity of screw dislocations to edge dislocations, leading to a tangled dislocation morphology, even at the initial stage of deformation (strain = 0.03). In addition, the density of screw dislocations at the later stage of deformation (strain = 0.20) increased in the presence of hydrogen. Based on the experimental results, it is proposed that a high density of vacancies accumulated along slip planes by jog-dragging of screw dislocations, and coalescence of the accumulated vacancies led to the hydrogen-related quasi-cleavage fracture along the {011} slip planes.

カーボンニュートラルの実現のため、水素は化石燃料を代替するエネルギーキャリアとして注目を集めている。歴史的に水素は鉄鋼材料の脆化を引き起こすとされてきたが、小川らはSUS310Sに水素を添加することで強度と延性が共に向上することを報告した。これらは水素による固溶強化と双晶変形の促進によると定性的に説明されているが、変形中の転位や積層欠陥の発達に対して、水素がどのような影響を与えるかその詳細は明らかとなっていない。本研究は、その場中性子回折により、これらの欠陥に対する水素の影響を明らかにすることを目的とする。

Hydrogen is being considered as an alternative energy carrier to fossil fuels to achieve the goal of Carbon Neutrality. While hydrogen has historically been associated with causing steel embrittlement, Ogawa et al. reported that the introduction of hydrogen to a Fe-24Cr-19Ni-based (mass%) austenitic stainless steel (AISI Type 310S) enhances both strength and ductility, thus counteracts the embrittlement effect. Although this phenomenon was qualitatively explained by the hydrogen-induced solid-solution strengthening and the promotion of deformation twinning, the influence of hydrogen on the development of dislocations and stacking faults (, twin nuclei) during deformation remains less understood. The aim of this work is to investigate the effects of hydrogen on the evolution of these crystal defects and overall deformation mechanisms by using neutron diffraction measurements.

Hydrogen is attracting attention as an alternative energy carrier to fossil fuels to establish a sustainable society. However, hydrogen is considered to cause embrittlement in steel, which has been a longstanding issue known as hydrogen embrittlement. In contrast to the embrittlement, recently, Ogawa 
, reported that the addition of hydrogen improved both strength and ductility in SUS310S (Fe-24Cr-19Ni mass%) steel. This phenomenon is attributed to hydrogen-induced solid solution strengthening and the promotion of twinning deformation. These approaches are gaining attention as effective ways to utilize hydrogen, which has long been considered harmful. However, the impact of hydrogen on crystal defects (dislocations, stacking faults) and the mechanisms behind enhanced twinning in SUS310S steel remain unclear. In this work, we investigated the deformation mechanisms of hydrogen-charged SUS310S steel by neutron diffraction measurement conducted by TAKUMI (MLF-BL19) of J-PARC.

The mechanisms of hydrogen charging in a 310S-type austenitic stainless steel, which promote strengthening and twinning, were investigated, along with the evaluation of dislocation and stacking fault evolution using in situ neutron diffraction during deformation. The hydrogen-charged sample exhibited increased yield stress, flow stress, and uniform elongation, consistent with previous studies. However, the effect of solute hydrogen on dislocation and stacking fault evolution was found to be minimal, in contrast to earlier reports suggesting that hydrogen promotes their formation to facilitate twinning. Further details will be presented and discussed.
