Alloy selection for fluid control components in hydrogen production environments

In this episode of The 1895 Podcast, we're joined by Buddy Damm, Senior Scientist of Metallurgy at Swagelok. We delve into the importance of material science in hydrogen production, focusing on fluid control components and their role in processes like steam methane reforming (SMR) and electrolysis.

Buddy shares his insights on material selection, the challenges of hydrogen embrittlement, and the significance of high-quality alloys in ensuring safety and efficiency in hydrogen systems.
