title: Stimulating effect of graphite admixture on hydrogen sorption-desorption properties of mechanically activated titanium powder.
abstract: The effect of graphite admixture on hydrogen sorption-desorption properties of mechanically activated electron microscopy, temperature-programmed reaction, and temperature-programmed desorption techniques. The major effect of graphite addition was found to be the formation of microporous carbon matrix particles containing randomly distributed titanium particles only several nanometers in diameter. This powder architecture enhances hydrogen transport to the titanium surface without hindrances and promotes titanium-hydrogen interaction by modifying the titanium surface and subsurface layers with interstitial carbon atoms.
