Abstract: The effect of strain rate on hydrogen embrittlement behaviour of amorphous Ni-6.6Cr-2.6Fe-7.8Si-14.5B (at pct) alloy in 0.1 mol/L H2SO4 solution was studied by the methods of slow Strain rate testond electrochemical charging. The results show that fracture Stress of the alloy decreases with the decrease of Strain rate within a certain range. As a tentative explanation, the effect of strain rate on hydrogen embrittlement fracture stress was attributed to the interaction between hydrogen and the excess volume in amorphous alloys
