Abstract: The ductility loss and threshold stress intensity,K_(IH)during hydrogen charging were measured for pure Ni and four Ni-Fe fcc alloys.The results show that ductility loss in 40Ni60Fe alloy and K_(IH)a 50Ni50Fe alloy have a minimum value.The variations of the amounts of hydride, hydrogen evolution and dislocation structure with composition have been investigated.The va- riation of hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility with composition measured by ductility loss and by K_(IH)or K_(IH)/K_C can be explained by means of the synthetical effects of amount of hydride,solutionized hydrogen and the extent of dislocation planarity on hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility.

Key words: Ni-Fe alloys, hydrogen embrittlement
