International researcher team develops scalable aluminium alloys for the hydrogen economy. Aluminium alloys are well-known for their low weight and corrosion resistance, making them ideal candidates ...

Hydrogen is a promising fuel for developing sustainable industrial processes, but its use is hindered by hydrogen embrittlement—a phenomenon that weakens metals and can cause sudden failure. Now, ...

Slow strain rate tensile testing was conducted on electrodeposited copper, which is a candidate coating material for used nuclear fuel containers. Embrittlement was observed in electrodeposited copper ...

This diagram depicts how metals with a smoother surface are less prone to the accumulation of hydrogen-induced defects, namely dislocations and vacancy clusters. As the world strives to achieve carbon ...
