Hydrogen embrittlement (HE), also known as hydrogen-assisted cracking or hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC), is a reduction in the ductility of a metal due to absorbed hydrogen. Hydrogen atoms are small and can permeate solid metals.
Hydrogen damage is the generic name given to a large number of metal degradation processes due to interaction with hydrogen atoms. Note that molecular gaseous hydrogen does not have the same effect as atoms or ions released into solid solution in the metal.
In 2009, Zurek et al. predicted that the alloy LiH 6 would be a stable metal at only one quarter of the pressure required to metallize hydrogen, and that similar effects should hold for alloys of type LiH n and possibly "other alkali high-hydride systems", i.e. alloys of type XH n, where X is an alkali metal.

Low hydrogen annealing, commonly known as "baking" is a heat treatment in metallurgy for the reduction or elimination of hydrogen in a material to prevent hydrogen embrittlement. Hydrogen embrittlement is the hydrogen-induced cracking of metals, particularly steel which results in degraded mechanical properties such as plasticity, ductility and ...
Hydrogen spillover is the migration of hydrogen atoms from the metal catalyst onto the nonmetal support or adsorbate. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Spillover , generally, is the transport of a species adsorbed or formed on a surface onto another surface. [ 3 ]
Some metal hydrides form when a metal complex is treated with hydrogen in the presence of a base. The reaction involves no changes in the oxidation state of the metal and can be viewed as splitting H 2 into hydride (which binds to the metal) and proton (which binds to the base). ML n x+ + base + H 2 ⇌ HML n (x-1)+ + Hbase +
Hydrogen is a chemical element; it has symbol H and atomic number 1. It is the lightest element and, at standard conditions, is a gas of diatomic molecules with the formula H 2, sometimes called dihydrogen, [11] hydrogen gas, molecular hydrogen, or simply hydrogen. It is colorless, odorless, [12] non-toxic, and highly combustible.
The hydrogen atoms occupy interstitial sites in palladium hydride. The H–H bond in H 2 is cleaved. The ratio in which H is absorbed on Pd is defined by = [] [].When Pd is brought into a H 2 environment with a pressure of 1 atm, the resulting concentration of H reaches x ≈ 0.7.
