A study was made of the diffusion of H by using a Sieverts cell at a H partial pressure of 1atm. The results, for temperatures ranging from 1090 to 1416C (table 13) could be described by:
D (cm2/s) = 2.49 x 10-3 exp[-6.23(kcal/g-atom)/RT]

Diffusivity of H in Co
Temperature (C) | D (cm2/s) |
1090 | 2.36 x 10-4 |
1220 | 3.37 x 10-4 |
1416 | 3.72 x 10-4 |
