The effect of hydrogen charging by cathodic polarization on T40 (grade 2) and TA6V ELI (grade 23) in artificial seawater appeared to be dependent on the metallurgical structure of the alloys. Mechanical tensile tests were performed on smooth samples and with different notches without and with hydrogen charging. Evolution of the fracture mode has been studied and the impact of hydrides was questioned. FEM calculation offers the opportunity to associate the local hydrostatic stress σm and equivalent plastic strain εpeq leading to the fracture and to illustrate the evolution of these conditions with hydrogen absorption and hydrides formation. Hydrogen charged by cathodic polarization appeared to have a small impact on grade 2 reducing its A%, whereas it leads to a strong embrittlement of grade 23 when the solubility limit of β-phase is exceeded and hydrides formed.
