摘要
Electrochemical permeation tests and silver decoration tests were performed in polycrystalline nickle with different grain sizes. Comparison of experimental results with theoretical predictions of a newly proposed grain boundary diffusion model indicates that grain boundaries are not high diffusivity paths for hydrogen. The sominant role played by grain boundaries during mass transport of hydrogen is retardation due to the trapping effect. The grain boundary diffusivity of hydrogen is concentration dependent. When the hydrogen concentration is extremely low, the grain boundary diffusion of hydrogen is virtually stopped. It is postulated that the low energy sites within grain boundaries are responsible for such retardation. © 1991.
