Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

We studied the interaction of Ti0.40Mo0.60 and Ti0.34Mo0.66 alloys with hydrogen and obtained hydrogen desorption isotherms at pressures of up to 250 MPa. At high hydrogen pressures, we observed the formation of Ti0.40Mo0.60Н1.1 and Ti0.34Mo0.66Н0.8 hydride phases. According to X-ray diffraction data, the hydrides consisted of phases with a body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic (CaF2 structure) lattices. The structure of the deuteride based on the Ti0.40Mo0.60 alloy was studied by neutron diffraction. We identified the sites occupied by deuterium atoms and determined their occupancies.
