Gl. Powell et Jr. Kirkpatrick, SOLUBILITY OF HYDROGEN AND DEUTERIUM IN BCC URANIUM-TITANIUM ALLOYS, Journal of alloys and compounds, 253, 1997, pp. 167-170
For the body-centered-cubic uranium-titanium alloy system, hydrogen an
d deuterium solubility measurements have been made on 12 alloy specime
ns ranging in composition from pure uranium to pure titanium and over
a temperature range of 900-1473 K. The results are described in closed
form by an analytical model within a standard error of 3%. The Einste
in temperature (1680 K), and thus the isotope effect, was independent
of alloy composition. The solubility and the enthalpy of solution were
strongly dependent on alloy composition, more so at low titanium conc
entrations.
