| Abstract Scope |
Hydrogen embrittlement limits the reliability of structural materials essential for a hydrogen-based energy infrastructure. The equiatomic CoCrNi medium-entropy alloy has recently emerged as a promising system due to its exceptional mechanical performance in extreme environments. To unravel the impact of chemical short-range order (CSRO) on hydrogen migration, we combine slow-strain-rate tests in previously hydrogen charged samples with several ex-situ analyses, including hydrogen gas permeation tests, thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction (HE-SXRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and atom probe tomography (APT). Moreover, to interpret our experimental results, we develop a deep-learning interatomic potential specifically tailored for CoCrNi-H systems. This enables large-scale molecular dynamics simulations that simultaneously resolve hydrogen mobility and CSRO at atomic resolutions. The role of CSRO in governing hydrogen diffusivity and hydrogen embrittlement resistance is critically examined. |
