Hydrogen Behavior in Carbon and Graphite Before and After Neutron Irradiation – Trapping, Diffusion and the Simulation of Bulk Retention. H.Atsumi, T.Tanabe, T.Shikama: Journal of Nuclear Materials, 2011, 417[1–3], 633–6

Bulk hydrogen retention and the mechanisms of hydrogen transport in graphite and carbon materials were summarized in the first half of the paper. From the various data on hydrogen retention, diffusion coefficients, nature of trapping sites and annealing effects, simulation of bulk hydrogen retention was performed. Neutron irradiation tends to increase hydrogen retention approximately 100 times larger than that of unirradiated graphite.
