    Abstract

    The behavior of API 5LX-52 and X-60 pipe line steels was studied under two hydrogen embrittlement conditions, these were hydrogen embrittlement itself and hydrogen assisted stress cracking. Determination of the Embrittlement Index was performed to study the first case and no sensitivity to this phenomena was found in either material. Nevertheless, an important loss of ductility was shown by both steels in the second case. This was studied by means of the slow strain rate technique with different hydrogen evolutions (produced by different cathodic potentials) at the specimen surface during the test.
