	abstract = {THE PERMEABILITY AND DIFFUSIVITY OF DEUTERIUM IN MEMBRANES OF                   STAINLESS STEEL AISI 316 HAVE BEEN DETERMINED AT DIFFERENT MEMBRANE             TEMPERATURES AND UPSTREAM DEUTERIUM DRIVING PRESSURES. THE                      RESULTS ONTAINED ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH OTHERS REPORTED IN                  THE LITERATURE, AND THEY WERE USED TO ESTIMATE THE TRITIUM                      PERMEATION AND INVENTORY IN SOME STRUCTURAL PARTS OF A FUSION                   REACTOR. THE SAME KIND OF MEASUREMENTS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED WITH                 A STEEL MEMBRANE HAVING THE UPSTREAM SURFACE COVERED WITH A LAYER               OF ABOUT 4X10-2 M OF THE LIQUID EUTECTIC ALLOY PB-17LI,                         TO REPRESENT THE INTERFACE PB-17LI/STEEL OF A COOLING TUBE IN                   THE BLANKET OF A FUSION REACTOR. IN THIS CASE THE VALUES OF THE                 PERMEABILITIES HAVE DECREASED BY A FACTOR OF 1 TO 4 WITH RESPECT                TO THE ABSENCE OF PB-17LI, AND ALSO THE ACTIVATION ENERGY OF THE                PERMEATION HAS DECREASED FROM 52000 TO 34000 J/MOL. THIS MEANS                  THAT THE PERMEABILITY HAS BECOME LESS TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENT.                    THIS BEHAVIOUR COULD BE EXPLAINED BY THE FACT THAT THE SOLUBILITY               OF DEUTERIUM IN PB-17LI IS LOWER THAN IN AISI 316, AND NEARLY                   INDEPENDENT OF TEMPERATURE, ACTING THEREFORE AS A KIND OF PERMEATION            BARRIER FOR THE DEUTERIUM. IN A REAL BLANKET THIS WOULD NOT BE THE CASE         BECAUSE THE TRITIUM IS BRED WITHIN THE PB-17LI.
