Tritium permeabilities of alloy 21-6-9 and of aluminum have been determined over the 200 to 750 /sup 0/C and 300 to 460 /sup 0/C ranges, respectively. Permeation behavior through cold worked alloy 21-6-9 was similar to that for other austenitic alloys, but behavior of annealed alloy 21-6-9 was markedly different and suggested a structural transition near 560 /sup 0/C. Permeabilities determined for nonoxidized aluminum were different from those given in earlier publications, but are believed to represent better hydrogen permeation through aluminum.
