Answer» RIGHT option is (d) Titanium and martensitic iron-base alloys

The best I can explain: Hydrogen embrittlement refers to the brittle cracking failure of reactive METALS due to the formation of METAL hydrides. Titanium, ferritic, and martensitic iron-base alloys are susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement.
