With the rise of hydrogen as a clean energy carrier, the integrity of steel pipelines becomes critical. However, hydrogen can cause embrittlement, weakening conventional steel and increasing the risk of fractures. The solution? Microstructural engineering. By modifying grain size, phase composition, and dislocation density, scientists are creating steels with enhanced fracture toughness, resistance to hydrogen attack, and long-term durability. These innovations in materials science are essential to building a safe and resilient hydrogen infrastructure.\\Steel vs. Hydrogen: How Microstructure Saves Pipelines!
