Alloy development for Hydrogen-related applications (ALL4HYDRO)

Purpose and goal: ** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** According to the goals, a comprehensive report was developed that is being completed within the consortium. In addition, three alloys were produced that were characterized against hydrogen embrittlement.

Finally, the consortium agreed to consolidate and expand a bit to continue the research to a full-scale study (ALL4HYDRO II). Expected results and effects: ** Denna text är maskinöversatt **

Developing the next generation of sustainable alloys with an improved service life in harsh environments will accelerate the implementation of H2 in many sectors, from transport to households. The results obtained in this project will affect and improve the efficiency of the H2 value chain, which will make it possible to reduce the associated costs and thus make this invaluable energy source more competitive with existing solutions (eg fossil fuels).

Approach and implementation: ** Denna text är maskinöversatt **

Solid solution hardened (high entropy concept) and dual-phase (FCC-BCC) alloys were developed and tested for applications where hydrogen embrittlement can be a problem. The result provided invaluable knowledge of what to focus on for future alloy modifications).
