Observations by Transmission Electron Microscopy and Electron Backscatter Diffraction corresponding to Fractography were conducted in order to investigate the brittle-striation formation mechanism of low carbon steel JIS S10C in a hydrogen gas environment. The main results are as follows: (1) The qu...
