This work presents a review of hydrogen isotopes-materials interaction
s in various materials of interest for fusion reactors. The relevant p
arameters cover mainly diffusivity, solubility, trap concentration and
energy difference between trap and solution sites. The list of materi
als includes the martensitic steels (MANET, Batman and F82H-mod.), ber
yllium, aluminium, beryllium oxide, aluminium oxide, copper, tungsten
and molybdenum. Some experimental work on the parameters that describe
the surface effects is also mentioned. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
