Hydrogen and deuterium diffusion in vanadium alloys. [Containing Ti or Nb]
H and D diffusion coefficients were measured between 473 and 230/sup 0/K in alloys of vanadium containing Ti or Nb, using Boltzmann-Matano techniques. Both H and D diffusion decreased with H isotope concentration in all alloys at all temperatures. Effect of Niobium additions was to reduce the rate of H migration to a minimum in the 75 at. % Nb alloy. The rate of H migration decreased with Ti up to 30 at % Ti. The diffusion coefficients exhibited an Arrhenius temperature dependence and the resulting diffusion activation energy and D/sub 0/ values both increased with Ti and with Nb to a miximum of 75 at % Nb. D diffusion activation energies were larger than corresponding H values in all alloys. The diffusion behavior found in these alloys is not well represented by current local deep trapping models. 12 figures, 6 tables.
