Hydrogen as a Challenge for Materials
Whether in automotive engineering, aerospace, energy supply, or chemical process engineering, the use of hydrogen requires reliable materials. However, hydrogen can penetrate metals, reduce their strength and, in extreme cases, lead to brittle failure without any discernible warning. These effects make targeted materials testing indispensable.

Contents of the Webinar
The compact online webinar “Gefahr im Unsichtbaren: Wasserstoffversprödung und ihre Wirkung auf Metalle” covers:

• The basics of hydrogen embrittlement and its influence on static and dynamic strength.
• Testing and analysis methods that can be used to detect and quantify the effects of hydrogen.
• Current research results that enable an informed selection of suitable materials for use in hydrogen environments.
• Approaches to safe component design to reduce risks in practice.

Practical Expertise
The webinar will be led by Dr. Jens Jürgensen (Euro-Labor GmbH), who will contribute his experience in materials testing and analysis and demonstrate in a practical manner how companies can deal with the risks of hydrogen embrittlement.

Who Is the Webinar of Interest To?
The event is aimed at materials engineers, component and part manufacturers, and researchers who work with hydrogen technology or want to prepare for future challenges. Register for free and join us in November!
