Two groups of nickel alloys are investigated to determine the hydrogen embrittlement resistance of the alloys. The first group includes alloys of the Ni-18Cr system, in which the influence of carbon on the properties and the tendency toward hydrogen embrittlement of the solid solution as the basis of the majority of dispersion-hardening nickel alloys was studied. The second group of alloys were treated with elements causing hardening in aging as the result of formation of an intermetallide phase of varying composition. Other alloys contained iron and copper. Copper and aluminum were found to markedly reduce hydrogen impregnation of the copper-containing alloys.
