ASTM Hydrogen 2025

About the Event:

The Conference on Hydrogen in Materials will be held June 3, 2025 – June 6, 2025. The conference is organized by ASTM Committee F07.04 on Hydrogen Embrittlement and will be held at La Rochelle University in La Rochelle, France. Here is an overview of the topics that will be presented by Cetim and Cetim Matcor:

• Influence of Molecular Interaction Affinity on H2 Permeation and Diffusion in Polymers
  Johnathan Tan, Cetim Matcor, Singapore
• Evaluating Hydrogen Embrittlement Sensitivity in High Strength Steel
  Ayoub El Moutaouakkil, Cetim Nantes, France
• Study of Hydrogen Embrittlement Risk in High-Strength Steel Fasteners Under Stress in a Hydrogenating Environment
  Daniella Guedes Sales, Cetim, Nantes, France
• SESSION 15
  Session Chair: Daniella Guedes Sales, Cetim, Nantes, France

Objective and Scope:

Hydrogen embrittlement has historically been a concern where hydrogen is absorbed by materials, either during manufacturing processes or as a byproduct of corrosion. With the advent of the hydrogen economy, the scope of research has grown to include material interaction with hydrogen gas. The infrastructure needed for hydrogen gas storage and transportation, as well as the materials needed at the point of use of hydrogen fuel, for heating or in vehicles, trains, and aircraft, are now part of the conversation. This conference provides a forum for the global hydrogen embrittlement research and testing communities to meet and exchange ideas on the latest fundamental research, and advances in technology, and to consider engineering implications across all industrial sectors.

Topics for this conference include, but are not limited to:

• Hydrogen and structural integrity in industrial sectors
  • Topics include manufacturing process from raw materials to finished products with an emphasis on standards and practices:
    • Automotive
    • Aerospace
    • Naval
    • Hydrogen storage & transport
    • Energy (Oil & Gas, Nuclear, etc.)
  • Fundamentals of hydrogen interaction in materials
    • Computational approaches of hydrogen and its effect on materials
    • Effect of hydrogen on fracture
    • Effect of hydrogen on additive manufacturing
    • Hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility
    • Hydrogen damage mechanisms (hydrogen embrittlement, hydride embrittlement, SCC, High temperature H attack, HIC, HE-fatigue, etc.)
