Hydrogen and deuterium diffusion in vanadium-titanium alloys
Hydrogen and deuterium diffusion coefficients were measured in vanadium-titanium alloys, containing up to 30 at. pct Ti, by Boltzmann-Matano techniques. Hydrogen and deutrium diffusivity decreased rapidly with titanium concentration. The diffusion coefficients showed an Arrhenius temperature dependence in each alloy between 230 and 473 K with activation energies that increased with titanium concentration. The diffusion coefficient decreased linearly with hydrogen concentration in all alloys. The terminal solid solubilities increased markedly with titanium concentration with deuterium showing a larger terminal solid solubility than hydrogen below ten percent titanium. The diffusion results do not fit a localized deep trapping of hydrogen by the titanium atoms.
