An experimental technique of obtaining hardened palladium β-hydride consisting in saturation of work-hardened palladium with hydrogen under the conditions characteristic of the development of an α → β phase transformation is developed. Processes of recrystallization and reversal of its mechanical properties are investigated. The temperature of primary recrystallization of work-hardened palladium β-hydride is established. A comparative analysis of the plasticity of palladium hydride and of palladium following recrystallization annealing is performed.
