Abstract

Important objectives when using high strength steel materials in the automotive industry are to reduce the weight and therefore the energy consumption of motor vehicles. Suitable test methods must be used to characterize the material specific properties in relation to hydrogen induced effects so that the materials can be used safely in body structures. Strained bend specimens and 4-point loaded specimens were used for this work. Both test methods have specific advantages and disadvantages and provide meaningful results in regard to the time delay in hydrogen assisted brittle fractures. Fundamental insights were obtained regarding the test procedure and the development of test methods for the impact of hydrogen on steel during manufacture and operation of respective components.

Kurzfassung

Wichtige Ziele bei der Verwendung von hochfesten Stahlwerkstoffen in der Automobilindustrie sind die Gewichtsreduzierung und damit die Reduzierung des Energieverbrauchs von Kraftfahrzeugen. Geeignete Prüfmethoden müssen zur Charakterisierung der materialspezifischen Eigenschaften in Bezug auf Wasserstoff angewendet werden, so dass diese Materialien in Strukturbauteilen sicher eingesetzt werden können. Für diese Arbeit wurden Bügelproben und 4-Punkt-Biege-Proben verwendet. Beide Prüfmethoden haben spezifische Vor- und Nachteile und liefern aussagekräftige Ergebnisse hinsichtlich der zeitlichen Verzögerung bei wasserstoffgetriebenen Sprödbrüchen. Grundlegende Erkenntnisse wurden hinsichtlich des Prüfverfahrens und der Entwicklung von Prüfverfahren für die Auswirkungen von Wasserstoff auf Stahl bei der Herstellung und dem Betrieb der jeweiligen Bauteile gewonnen.

Benjamin Kröger studied Mechanical Engineering with specialization in vehicle mechatronics at University of Applied Sciences Ravensburg-Weingarten, Germany and then received his Master's degree in Product Development in 2011. He has been part of the Steinbeis network since 2005 and was responsible for industrial and scientific projects until the end of 2014. In January 2015, the company Steinbeis Transfer Center for Corrosion and Corrosion Protection GmbH was transformed into a legally independent company and he took over the management together with Prof. Dr. R. Holbein. The areas of expertise in the fields of aerospace, automotive and other industries include the areas of materials, surface engineering, corrosion protection, electrochemistry, tribology and wear.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Reinhold Holbein founded the Steinbeis Transfer Center for Corrosion and Corrosion Protection GmbH in Friedrichshafen, Germany in 1996, and since 2014 he has successfully continued this as a newly founded and legally independent company called “Steinbeis Transfer Center for Materials, Corrosion and Corrosion Protection. He worked in the company Dornier Luftfahrt GmbH in the area of materials, surface technology and corrosion protection. As a senior engineer for surface technology, he was responsible for aircrafts such as DO 228 and DO 328, among others. From 1994 to 2002, he taught at Albstadt University of Applied Sciences, Germany in the field of mechanical engineering, surface engineering, corrosion, tribology and aluminum alloys. In 2002, he moved to the University of Ravensburg-Weingarten, Germany and until 2015 he taught mechanical engineering, surface engineering and applied materials technology in the field of mechanical engineering.

Dr.-Ing. Stephan G. Klose graduated from the Technical University of Munich, Germany (Dipl.-Phys.) and received his Dr.-Ing. in Material Science from the Technical University Berlin, Germany in 1995. From 1996 to 2002, he held various positions at Audi AG in Ingolstadt, Germany in technical development, production and planning. In addition to materials and surface technology, plant engineering and production planning also played a decisive role. At the end of 2002, he took over different tasks at Daimler AG in the development of passenger cars with regard to corrosion protection, materials and surface technology. Currently, he is a senior manager at Daimler AG in Sindelfingen, Germany, responsible among others, for advanced materials and technologies in pre-development, focusing on lightweight construction with ultra-high strength steels, aluminum and magnesium materials for car body applications in passenger cars and commercial vehicles.
