Summary of Practice4.1 The technique involves locating the metal membrane(that is, specimen) of interest between the hydrogen chargingand oxidation cells.

26、In the laboratory, the charging cell containsthe environment of interest. Hydrogen atoms are generated onthe membrane surface exposed to this environment. In field orplant measurements, the wall of the pipe or vessel can be usedas the membrane through which measurement of hydrogen fluxare made. The

27、actual process environment is on the chargingside of the membrane which eliminates the need for a chargingcell. See 7.1 for guidance on various specimen configurations.4.2 In gaseous environments, the hydrogen atoms are gen-erated by adsorption and dissociation of the gaseous species. Inaqueous envi

28、ronments, hydrogen atoms are produced by elec-trochemical reactions. In both cases, some of the hydrogenatoms diffuse through the membrane and are then oxidized onexiting from the other side of the metal in the oxidation cell.4.3 The conditions (for example, environment and theelectrode potential) o

29、n the oxidation side of the membrane arecontrolled so that the metal surface is either passive or immuneto corrosion. The background current established under theseconditions prior to hydrogen transport should be relativelyconstant and small compared to that of the hydrogen atomoxidation current.4.4

30、 The electrode potential of the specimen in the oxidationcell is controlled at a value sufficiently positive to ensure thatthe kinetics of oxidation of hydrogen atoms are limited by theflux of hydrogen atoms, that is, the oxidation current density isdiffusion limited.4.5 The total oxidation current

31、is monitored as a function oftime. The total oxidation current comprises the backgroundcurrent and the current resulting from oxidation of hydrogenatoms. The latter is the permeation current.4.6 The thickness of the specimen is selected usually toensure that the measured flux reflects volume (bulk)

32、controlledhydrogen atom transport. Thin specimens may be used forevaluation of the effect of surface processes on hydrogen entryor exit (absorption kinetics or transport in oxide films).4.7 In reasonably pure, defect-free metals (for example,single crystals) with a sufficiently low density of micros

33、truc-tural trap sites, atomic hydrogen transport through the materialis controlled by lattice diffusion.4.8 Alloying and microstructural features such asdislocations, grain boundaries, inclusions, and precipitate par-ticles may act as trap sites for hydrogen thus delaying hydrogentransport. These tr

34、aps may be reversible or irreversible depend-ing on the binding energy associated with the particular trapsites compared to the energy associated with migration forhydrogen in the metal lattice.4.9 The rate of hydrogen atom transport through the metalduring the first permeation may be affected by bo

35、th irreversibleand reversible trapping as well as by the reduction of anyoxides present on the charging surface.At steady state all of theirreversible traps are occupied. If the mobile hydrogen atomsare then removed and a subsequent permeation test conductedG148 97 (2018)2on the specimen the differe

36、nce between the first and secondpermeation transients can be used to evaluate the influence ofirreversible trapping on transport, assuming a negligible role ofoxide reduction.4.10 For some environments, the conditions on the chargingside of the specimen may be suitably altered to induce a decayof th

37、e oxidation current after attainment of steady state. Therate of decay will be determined by diffusion and reversibletrapping only and, hence, can also be used to evaluate the effectof irreversible trapping on transport during the first transient.4.11 Comparison of repeated permeation transients wit

38、hthose obtained for the pure metal can be used in principle toevaluate the effect of reversible trapping on atomic hydrogentransport.4.12 This practice is suitable for systems in which hydrogenatoms are generated uniformly over the charging surface of themembrane. It is not usually applicable for ev

39、aluation ofcorroding systems in which pitting attack occurs unless thecharging cell environment is designed to simulate the localizedpit environment and the entire metal charging surface is active.4.13 This practice can be used for stressed and unstressedspecimens but testing of stressed specimens r

40、equires consider-ation of loading procedures.5. Significance and Use5.1 The procedures described, herein, can be used to evalu-ate the severity of hydrogen charging of a material produced byexposure to corrosive environments or by cathodic polariza-tion. It can also be used to determine fundamental

41、properties ofmaterials in terms of hydrogen diffusion (for example, diffu-sivity of hydrogen) and the effects of metallurgical, processing,and environmental variables on diffusion of hydrogen inmetals.5.2 The data obtained from hydrogen permeation tests canbe combined with other tests related to hyd

42、rogen embrittlementor hydrogen induced cracking to ascertain critical levels ofhydrogen flux or hydrogen content in the material for crackingto occur.6. Apparatus6.1 The experimental set-up shall consist of a separatecharging and oxidation cell of a form similar to Fig. 1. Sealedoxidation cells, in

43、which an additional material (usuallypalladium), either plated or sputter deposited onto or clampedagainst the specimen and the flux exiting this additionalmaterial is measured may be used provided that it is demon-strated that the introduction of this additional interface has noeffect on the calcul

44、ated diffusivity. The clamping of thisadditional material may provide inaccurate permeation currentsin some systems due to the barrier effect at the interface (thatis, oxides, air gaps and so forth will act as a diffusion barrier).6.2 Non-metallic materials which are inert to the test envi-ronment s

45、hould be used for cell construction.6.2.1 At temperatures above 50C, leaching from the cellmaterial (for example, silica dissolution from glass in someenvironments) can modify the solution chemistry and mayinfluence hydrogen permeation.6.2.2 Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is an example of amaterial

46、suitable for elevated temperatures up to about 90C.6.2.3 Where metallic chambers are necessary (for contain-ment of high pressure environments), the materials chosenshall have a very low passive current to ensure minimal effecton the solution composition and shall be electrically isolatedfrom the me

47、mbrane.6.3 The O-ring seal material should be selected to minimizepossible degradation products from the seals and contamina-tion of the solution. This problem is particularly of concernwith highly aggressive environments and at high test tempera-tures.6.4 Double junction reference electrodes may be

48、 used wherenecessary to avoid contamination of test solutions. At elevatedtemperatures, the use of a solution conductivity bridge arrange-ment with suitable inert materials is recommended.6.5 The location of the reference electrode in each compart-ment shall ensure minimal potential drop between the

49、 speci-men and the reference electrode. A Luggin capillary may beuseful in cases where the solution resistivity is high, small cellvolumes are used and long tests are conducted. See Guide G96for further guidance.6.6 Recording of oxidation (and, as appropriate, charging)current shall be made using a standard resistor and a highinternal impedance digital voltmeter or by direct measurementusing a current monitoring device.6.7 The measurement devices should be traceable to na-tional standards and calibrated prior to testing.6.8 In some cases, stirring of
