RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES FOR AN EXAMPLE OF THE THERMAL DESORPTION OF HYDROGEN FROM SELECTED INTERMETALLIC HYDRIDES BASED ON ZIRCONIUM AND RARE-EARTH METALS
On the basis of the data of neutron diffraction analyses, it is shown that the temperature of hydrogen release in the process of thermal desorption from some interstices of the metal matrix depends not only on the type of their faceting but also on some other structural factors including, first of all, the sizes of interstices and the presence of short H-H distances.
