Hydrogen Transport in and Through Niobium

Abstract

dc:description

Two separate experiments were performed in order to understand the roles of bulk diffusion and surface processes in hydrogen transport in and through niobium. Bulk hydrogen and deuterium diffusivities and permeabilities were measured at high temperatures (700 - 1400 K) using diffusion controlled permeation methods. At lower temperatures, surface controlled permeation was used to investigate the role of the surface in hydrogen absorption and desorption.
