In this project, the focus is on 3D printed Ni-based CRA and high entropy alloys. The hydrogen trapping and diffusion coupled with mechanical loading in these alloys as a function of 3D printing strategy and parameter as well as the composition will be studied. Through a recursive approach and using the understanding from the process of diffusion and trapping in these alloys a 3D printing strategies to develop next-generation hydrogen resistant alloys will be developed. The project has 4 work packages.

WP1: 3D printing and sample preparation

WP2: Characterization and testing

WP3: Mechanical testing

WP4: Computational analysis
