  • Abstract
    We present a density functional theory (DFT) study of the hydrogen-metal interaction in the B2-TiFe alloy with Σ5(310) symmetrical tilt grain boundary (GB) and (310) free surface (FS). The influence of hydrogen on the electronic properties of alloy with GB and FS is analyzed for different hydrogen sorption sites. The hydrogen absorption/adsorption, binding and segregation energies are calculated at GB and FS. Our calculations reveal that H segregates more strongly to the surface than to the GB that results in decrease in the Griffith work, i.e., H makes the fracture of the GB easier.
