While in the hot rolled steel (not cold drawn) the pearlitic microstructure is randomly oriented and the crack progresses in hydrogen by breaking the ferrite/cementite lamellae, in heavily drawn steels the pearlitic microstructure is fully oriented and the predominant mechanism of hydrogen assisted cracking is the delamination (or decohesion) at the ferrite/cementite interface. A link is established between the oriented microstructure of the heavily cold drawn pearlitic steels wires and their anisotropy of hydrogen embrittlement behaviour associated with hydrogen assisted cracking path deflection with angle close to 90º, thereby resembling the Mantegna’s Dead Christ perspective. © 2020 The Authors.

Requejo 33, 49022 Zamora, Spain Keywords: pearlitic steel; cold drawing; microstructural orientation; hydrogen embrittlement; hydrogen-assisted micro-damage; HEDE. Keywords: pearlitic steel; cold drawing; microstructural orientation; hydrogen embrittlement; hydrogen-assisted micro-damage; HEDE. 1. Introduction Cold drawn eutectoid pearlitic steels are the basic components of prestressed concrete in the form of prestressing steel wires. This paper revisits previous research by the author on the topic of anisotropic hydrogen embrittlement (HE) behaviour influenced by the microstructure. 1.
