The objective of the proposed project is to expose surrogate materials (aluminides of zirconium, molybdenum and gadolinium) to pure hydrogen, both under ambient conditions and at elevated temperatures to study their hydriding behavior. Hydriding and dehydriding are the means to separate the bulk aluminum from the metallic uranium fuel.
