ML00005 — Environmental Hydrogen Damage in Ti PipeM - Unalloyed TitaniumP - Longitudinal Seam Welded PipeAp - PipingCd - Hydride Formation
The pipe base metal, at the internal surface, presents a hydride layer showing that the environment is absorbing hydrogen. Although there are microcracks in this layer it did not detach in the base metal.

Cm - Kroll Etched Micrography by OMDf - Columnar Grains
The pipe internal suface, at the welded region, presents no hydride layer (because it has detached) as well as the material itself is suffering brittle detachment.
