ABSTRACT

Carbon. and. low-alloy. steels. are. common. structural. materials. for. high-pressure. hydrogen.gas.vessels.and.pipelines..These.steels.are.low.cost,.and.a.wide.range.of. properties.can.be.achieved.through.alloying,.processing,.and.heat.treatment.1.Fabricating.complex.structures.such.as.gas.containment.vessels.and.pipelines.is.readily.accomplished.with.steels.since.these.materials.can.be.formed,.welded,.and.heat. treated.in.large.sections.
