Is austenitic stainless steel a material susceptible to hydrogen-induced cracking?

Do you mean hydrogen-induced cracking as HIC? If so, then the typical environment for HIC occurs in a wet hydrogen sulfide environment at temperatures below 150 degrees Celsius; in such conditions, austenitic stainless steel is quite safe, and in fact, 16MnR steel resistant to HIC is sufficient.

Using hydrogen sulfide-resistant steel plates such as 16MnR (HIC) is much more cost-effective than using stainless steel. Wugang Panglong MSN: gupan777@163.com

No, it’s chromium-molybdenum steel and the like that are the ones!
