Prior austenite grain (PAG) structure is an important factor influencing hydrogen embrittlement (HE) susceptibility of ultrahigh-strength steels. In this study, the effect of PAG shape and size on HE behaviour is investigated using a novel tuning-fork testing method and hydrogen thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS). Different PAG structures were acquired via re-austenitization (860 °C = A860, 960 °C = A960) and rapid quenching of an as-received 500 HBW direct-quenched (DQ) steel, which has an auto-tempered lath-martensitic microstructure and elongated PAG morphology. Fractography reveals different crack propagation mechanisms depending on the PAG shape. With the elongated PAG structure, hydrogen-induced crack propagation transverse to elongated PAGs was transgranular quasi-cleavage. Propagation was partially intergranular with the equiaxed PAG structures, regardless of the PAG size, leading to equally faster fracture. The TDS results show that there are no significant differences between the total hydrogen contents, but re-austenitized A860 and A960 steels contain a higher fraction of weakly trapped hydrogen. This indicates that the PAG boundaries are not the dominant hydrogen traps, and the different crack propagation mechanisms are rather linked to the geometrical shape of the grain structure. |
