| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is known that hydrogen embrittlement(HE) susceptibility of aluminum alloys depends on alloy system. In order to reveal whether the high-resistance to HE in Al-Cu-Mg alloys results from microstructure near grain boundaries, HE susceptibility of Al-Cu-Mg alloys with various microstructures was evaluated using slow strain rate technique (SSRT) tensile test in humid air and humid gas stress corrosion cracking(HG-SCC) test. Although intergranular fracture was observed in some specimens in SSRT tensile test, the fracture surfaces were covered with fine dimples indicating ductile fracture manner. In HG-SCC test, crack propagation was not observed in any conditions. Therefore, it is concluded that Al-Cu-Mg alloys show high-resistance to HE regardless of microstructure.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
アルミニウム合金の水素脆化機構の解明はさらなる高強度合金開発のためには避けては通れない課題であり、これまでに多くの研究が行われてきたが、Al-Cu-Mg合金に関する研究は少なく、金属組織が水素脆化感受性に及ぼす影響はあまり調べられていなかった。本研究で、金属組織を変化させ、異なる水素脆化評価方法においても、Al-Cu-Mg合金が耐水素脆化特性を示すことを明らかにしたことは学術的に意義があると考える。また、このことは同合金系を構造物へ適用する際に有用な基礎的知見であり、構造物の軽量化に寄与するものであることから、社会的意義も大きいと考える。
