The ion-driven permeation technique was used to determine the diffusivity. The steady-state permeation rate and the diffusion coefficient tended to decrease with increasing fluence, because of changes in the surface or sub-surface regions. It was found that the results for 500 to 1100K could be described by:

D (cm2/s) = 1.4 x 10-2 exp[-8.5(kcal/mol)/RT]
