Hydrogenation treatment under several gigapascals assists diffusionless transformation in a face-centered cubic steel

Abstract The use of hydrogen in iron and steel has the potential to improve mechanical properties via altering the phase stability and dislocation behavior. When hydrogen is introduced under several gigapascals, a stoichiometric composition of hydrogen can be introduced for steel compositions. In th...
