Behavior and improvement of the ZrCo based intermetallic materials for tritium recovery, storage and supply are studied. Compound ZrCo was found to be subject to disproportionation at high temperature under high hydrogen pressure to form ZrCo2 and ZrH2. This process is completely reversed by vacuum treatment at temperature above 500°C for several hours. Kinetics of the disproportionation was described to be similar to phase transition that have apparent incuvation time to take place. The logarithmic reaction rate constant was related to the reciprocal temperature. With some precautions drawn from the results, this reaction is not a problem in practice. For the application that needs prolonged supply of relatively high-pressure tritium, solid solution of ZrCo and HfCo was developed as an improvement of the material. Materials otained by arc melting with compoistion of Zr(1−x)HfxCo (0<x<0.5) exhibits single plateaus in pressure - composition isotherms when hydrogenated. Repeated hydrognation - dehydrogenation cycles did not generate separate ZrCo and HfCo phases. The equilibrium hydrogen pressure in the plateau regions are expressed as a functio of reciprocal temperature and increases with increasing HfCo contents. This material provides controlled equilibrium hydrogen pressure required for specific applications of tritium storage nad supply.
