The effect of oxidation temperature and duration, cyclic oxidation-red
uction regimes, and vacuum treatment of previously oxidized porous mat
erial on the kinetics of capillary transport against the force of grav
ity is studied. It is shown that oxidation markedly reduces gas permea
bility due to development of their free surface and an increase in fri
ctional losses with gas flow. Vacuum treatment of preoxidized structur
es reduces the rate of impregnation as a result of deterioration in co
pper wetting by water.
