Abstract
The method of desorption under vacuum at high temperatures in the solid phase, which gives good results in the case of steels, has been applied to uranium and zirconium. In these two metals hydrogen is found mainly in the form of hydride. It is chiefly a question of determining the most suitable temperature and the heating time necessary to obtain an almost total extraction of hydrogen. Two considerations must be taken into account in the choice of temperature. It should be such that on the one hand the hydride decomposes rapidly and completely at the reduced pressure applied, and on the other hand the diffusion of hydrogen through the metal takes place fairly quickly. The apparatus and the method used are described; systematic tests have led to the adoption of temperatures of 650 deg. C for uranium and 1050 deg. C for zirconium.
