Furthermore, aging experiments were conducted for 7 days under static conditions in 100 MPa hydrogen and the physical and mechanical properties of the rubber materials were examined before and after hydrogen exposure. Fretting tests revealed that the wear of these compounds is significantly affected by the hydrogen environment compared to air, especially with NBR grades. After aging experiment, the friction response of HNBR grades is characterized by increased adhesion due to elastic deformation, leading to partial slip.

Furthermore, aging experiments were conducted for 7 days under static conditions in 100 MPa hydrogen. Fretting tests revealed the wear of the polymer decreases with increasing hydrogen pressure. After high pressure hydrogen exposure, the fretting process is characterized by increased adhesion due to elastic deformation, leading to partial slip.

It is therefore crucial to study deeply material compatibility, in particular for tribological components that are directly in contact with hydrogen. Some of the most critical parts are sealing components that face high risk of damage due variation of pressure, temperature and mechanical stress. In this study, the friction and wear behaviour of several rubber materials was evaluated in hydrogen environment at ambient and low temperature. Tests were performed against 316L disks in a reciprocation motion. Results reveal that the hydrogen affects the friction and wear behaviour of most materials. The friction mechanism is dominated by deformation for most rubber materials at ambient temperature while sliding occurs at low temperature due to the increased hardness of the rubbers.
