Abstract:The amount of hydrogen in steel that affects hydrogen embrittlement is considered to be changed with the amount of corrosion of the steel. The authors have found a relationship between the depth of snow and the amount of corrosion. In this study, the hydrogen content was examined and no correlation was found with the amount of corrosion. Under thin solution layer formed by melting snow, the main cathodic reaction is reduction of dissolved oxygen and hydrogen generation reaction is slight. The large amount of s… Show more
