Abstract
Hydrogen solubility in Zr-N and Zr-C alloys with various compositions has been measured at a temperature of 8731, 048 K at a pressure below 100 Pa. All the solubility data closely obeyed Sieverts' law. The presence of carbon and nitrogen in zirconium increased the hydrogen solubility at a fixed pressure and provided the negative effect on the enthalpy of solution. Partial thermodynamic functions of hydrogen in the Zr-N and Zr-C alloys were obtained by a dilute solution model and compared to those obtained previously for Zr-O alloys. Dependence of partial molar quantities of hydrogen on interstitial impurity content in zirconium was discussed in terms of dilatometric effect, configurational effect and other contributions.
