Hydrogen in Materials Science & Engineering – H2MSE 2024   From February 11–13, the #H2MSE conference took place in Siegburg, highlighting the transformative role of #hydrogen in materials science and engineering. Key topics ranged from material testing under hydrogen influence and hydrogen storage to hydrogen permeation.   Our experts for protective coatings in hydrogen environments, Dr. Ronja Anton and Andrea Ebach-Stahl, as well as Sandrine Hönig from DLR-Institut für Bauweisen und Strukturtechnologie shared their latest research on hydrogen-related materials and coatings:   🔹 𝐁𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐍𝐢-𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐬: 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐇₂ 𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐛𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 (Dr. Ronja Anton) Hydrogen-powered turbine engines benefit from lightweight materials like γ-TiAl and SiC/SiC CMCs, which improve efficiency but require high-temperature protection. Alumina-forming Ti-Al-Cr coatings enhance γ-TiAl oxidation resistance, while multilayer Yb-silicate based EBCs protect SiC/SiC CMCs from steam degradation, ensuring durability in extreme environments.   🔹 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡-𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐱𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐍𝐢𝐂𝐨𝐂𝐫𝐀𝐥𝐘 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐂𝐌𝐒𝐗-4 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐬 (Andrea Ebach-Stahl) As gas and aircraft turbines increasingly operate with hydrogen fuel, understanding oxidation behavior in NiCoCrAlY-coated CMSX-4 alloys becomes crucial. This study examines the impact of elevated steam on oxidation kinetics, microstructure, and phase development at high temperatures.   🔹 𝐏𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐱 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐇𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧-𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐉𝐞𝐭 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 (Sandrine Hönig) Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) offer high-temperature resistance at low weight—making them promising for hydrogen-powered jet engines. The presentation explored the latest research on SiC/SiC turbine guide vanes and cost-efficient C/C-SiC piston rings, discussing both their challenges and potential.   The event provided a fantastic opportunity to exchange ideas on the future of the usage of hydrogen in aerospace. 🚀✈ In the picture below you can see Sandrine Hönig, Andrea Ebach-Stahl and Ronja Anton (from left to right) after their presentations.   Are you interested to learn more about hydrogen applications or our research in this field?

When modeling Hydrogen Direct Reduction (#HDR) at the pellet scale - a key step in decarbonizing steel industry - a fundamental question remains: How well do our models actually reflect reality? Our team of thermodynamic enthusiasts working on this question includes Moritz to Baben, Fabrice Yang, Anna Ravensburg, and Ömer Kerim Büyükuslu, who is pursuing his PhD at the Max Planck Institute for Sustainable Materials with Prof. Dierk Raabe. Anna recently presented our latest results at the #H2MSE2025 in Siegburg/Bonn, perfectly organized by the German Society for Materials Science (DGM). 🔎 A review by Salucci et al. published last December highlighted the massive scatter in reported activation energies for iron oxide reduction reactions, with values ranging from 66 kJ/mol ± 57.2 kJ/mol for the magnetite to wüstite transition. 😯 Yes, you read the uncertainty correctly, the activation energy could be in the range of 10 kJ/mol or over 100 kJ/mol. These discrepancies indicate huge gaps in the fundamental understanding of the reaction mechanisms, leading to questionable model parameterization. Keep in mind that we want these models to extrapolate well to predict reactions when moving from C/CH4 as reductant to #H2 as reductant! So how do we at GTT-Technologies meet the challenge of robust model parameterization? By being honest about our input parameters! ➡️ Figure 1 in the carousel Instead of relying on excessive fitting, we have drastically reduced the number of adjustable parameters (➡️ Figure 2) and ensured that our model remains thermodynamically consistent. And yet, even with this approach, different parameter sets can fit the same conversion curves. But which one is correct? This was a key point in our talk at #H2MSE2025, where we discussed how to validate our model. If you missed it, stay tuned for our upcoming publication (just follow us here, we will keep you updated). And if you cannot wait, feel free to contact us! 📌 Related work: https://lnkd.in/eK-ygfEF ✅ Anna’s work is part of the ProDekan project #ProcessSimulation for #Decarbonization, supported by EFRE/JTF in NRW #EUinmyRegion #efrenrw 📸 The photo on the first slide of the carousel was taken by the conference organization team from the German Society for Materials Science (DGM).

Mini-Serie - Teil 2: Die Saarländische Wasserstoff Agentur beim 13. #Regionalforum Saar der German Society for Materials Science - Deutsche Gesellschaft für Materialkunde e.V. (DGM) Das Motto “Werkstoffinnovationen für innovative Antriebe” lockte viele Fachleute ins #Innovation Center der Universität des Saarlandes. Als Aussteller präsentierte ich gemeinsam mit meinem Kollegen Andreas Walger unsere Aktivitäten und sowie unsere Rolle als zentraler Netzwerkpartner im Saarland. Die Gespräche mit den Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmern waren äußerst bereichernd und zeigten das große Interesse an nachhaltigen Energieträgern. Besonders beeindruckend war der Vortrag von Florian Schäfer von der Universität des Saarlandes über „#Wasserstoff - Superschurke der #Materialwissenschaften“. Wie entsteht Wasserstoffversprödung wie erkennen wir sie und wie gehen wir damit um. Mein Fazit: Es braucht solche Grundlagenforschung und ihre Publikation, um die Sicherheit der Technologie für die Zukunft sowohl zu gewährleisten als auch aufzuzeigen. Ich freue mich darauf, die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse in zukünftige Projekte einzubringen und die Zusammenarbeit mit den engagierten Fachleuten aus der Region weiter zu vertiefen. #Nachhaltigkeit #Energiezukunft #Innovation #Wasserstofftechnologie #Forschung #Zukunftstechnologien #Saarland #DGM #h2saar #strukturwandel

This year's International Day of Women and Girls in Science spent scientifically - at a conference. I had an opportunity to participate at the 1st Conference on Hydrogen in Materials Science and Engineering #H2MSE2025 of the German Society for Materials Science - Deutsche Gesellschaft für Materialkunde e.V. (DGM) in Siegburg and present our research on #hydrogen #embrittlement. Three days filled with insightful presentations, plenary lectures from experts, discussions and workshops on the role of hydrogen and hydrogen-related innovations in materials science and engineering made for an enriching experience, offering valuable perspectives and inspiration. #MSCA 4UKRAINE Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Universität Bayreuth #MetalsAndAlloys

Presenting our initial research (WOT - Professur Werkstoff- und Oberflächentechnik, Technische Universität Chemnitz at the 1st Conference on Hydrogen in Materials Science and Engineering of German Society for Materials Science (DGM) was an enriching experience. The event provided valuable insights into hydrogen applications in materials science and engineering, giving me a broader perspective. It was also a pleasure to reconnect with colleagues and meet new professionals. Thank you to the organizers #H2MSE2025 for organizing such a well-structured and impactful conference. #hydrogen #materialscience #titaniumalloys #aviation #microstructure #fuelcells #combustionengines #hydrogenstorage #decarbonization

Last week, I had the great opportunity to present our latest research on a completely new type of hydrogen testing sensor which can fully compensate the sealing friction during high-pressure autoclave in-situ tests at the 1st Conference on Hydrogen in Materials Science and Engineering, organized by the German Society for Materials Science - Deutsche Gesellschaft für Materialkunde e.V. (DGM) in Siegburg/Bonn. With this sensor it is possible for us to determine the true testing force directly in the test environment on the specimen. As a result of this improvement, material parameters can be determined much more accurately in the future. This leads directly to topics such as lightweight construction and resource-saving development. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the organizers for this great event and my colleagues Martin Werz and Brian Kagay and Alexandra Oßwald for their supervision.
