Abstract
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.
