Abstract: An analysis of studies of membrane alloys Ta₇₇Nb₂₃ and Ta_94,9W_5,1 was carried out with an estimation of their characteristics – thermal stability, strength – by measuring microhardness, matrix structure – by X-ray analysis, as well as the dynamics of hydrogen – diffusion (theoretically) and permeability (experimentally). The efficiency of the hydrogen separation/purification using the Ta₇₇Nb₂₃ and Ta_94,9W_5,1 alloys was higher than that of palladium, measured under the same test conditions.

Keywords: hydrogen selective membranes, tantalum-based alloy, solubility, absorption, permeability, diffusion, concentration, gas separation, purification, embrittlement, thermal stability, resistance to hydrogen embrittlement
