Vacuum-baking provides many advantages for LiH
- Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Livermore, CA (United States)
In vacuum applications, the thermal decomposition of LiOH corrosion on LiH causes undesirable hydrogen outgassing. The quantity of outgassing is dependent on the thermal stability of the corrosion layer, which depends on sample treatment. We have measured the decomposition of LiOH on as-polished LiH and on previously vacuum-baked LiH (i.e., Li2O-covered LiH) which both experienced moisture re-exposure.
