Description

Safe handling, transport, and storage of tritium requires several condition: very low equilibrium pressures over the tritide at room temperature, high dissociation pressure at moderate temperatures, existence of plateau regions in the loading/deloading isotherms, fast adsorption/desorption kinetics, no disproportionation, low reactivity of the metal/tritide system towards air and the major contaminants, low pyrophoricity, and low aging effects caused by the accumulated of He-3
