Synchrotron Laue nano-diffraction mapped strain around grain boundaries in hydrogen-charged iron: random boundaries accumulated high strain and blistered; special coincidence-site-lattice boundaries resisted. Boundary character is a real lever against hydrogen damage — boundary engineering, not just chemistry. Based on the paper: Synchrotron X-ray Laue Diffraction Study of Hydrogen-induced Blisters on Iron Grain Boundaries; X. Tao, G.-C. Lv, J.-W. Kou, X. Xiong, A.A. Volinsky, C. Ku, K. Chen, Y.-J. Su; Scripta Materialia, 2019, Vol. 169, pp. 82–86. Hosts Elena and Marcus. AI-generated voices.
