The permeation of D was studied by using the gas-phase breakthrough technique at between 100 and 500C, and pressures of between 10Pa and 100kPa. It was found that the data could be described by the Arrhenius parameters:

log[Po (mol/s m Pa½)] = -6.83, E (eV) = 0.62

log[Do (m2/s)] = -6.25, E (eV) = 0.46

The occurrence of D-trapping within the alloys appeared to affect the bulk diffusivity values.
