Description
Summary:Some results of an investigation of hydrogen absorption by selected intermetallic compounds of uranium and thorium with nickel, cobalt, manganese and palladium are reported. Of the compounds under consideration, ThNiAl and UNiAl revealed the greatest capability for hydrogen absorption. The basic thermodynamic functions were calculated for hydrides of both these compounds and the lattice constants were determined by an X-ray method.
