Hydrogen embrittlement and brass?
Hydrogen embrittlement and brass?
(OP)
The problem of hydrogen embrittlement of copper is known and linked to the oxgen content of the material. But I don't find anything concerning the embrittlement of brass. I would be grateful if somebody could give me some informations on this subject.
I'm also interesting on hydrogen embrittlement in general (recommended Materials, specifications, ...)

RE: Hydrogen embrittlement and brass?
Brass does not contain these particles so is not susceptible to this form of attack.

Another form of attack is called dezincification which is more common in duplex brasses although not confined to them.
Good Luck
