Estimates of the extent of the hydrogen exchange reaction between cellulose and water vapor determined by an improved method using tritiated water and by the use of heavy water were usually in good agreement. With certain samples, surface roughness had a small effect upon the measurement of tritium radioactivity in cellulose.The accessibility or limiting extent of the exchange increased slightly with relative humidity in the range 20 to 100% and was attributed to the reduction of crystalline order reported recently in similar experiments.In contrast to cellulose whose accessibility corresponds approximately to the amorphous fraction, a partially crystalline amylose was 100% accessible while an amorphous xylan was 52% accessible, indicating that in these substances the accessibility and the fraction of amorphous material are not identical.

In order to evaluate the feasibility of tritium recovery from tritiated water by thermochemical decomposition using ZrNi5, the kinetics of reaction between ZrNi5 and water vapor was studied by thermogravimetric method in the temperature range from 673K to 823K. The result shows that reaction rate increased significantly with the increasing of temperature and H2O concentration; the reaction mechanism for ZrNi5 can be described by the first-order chemical reaction, and the reaction is first order for H2O concentration. The reaction activation energy of ZrNi5 is 55.8kJ/mol calculated from the Arrhenius equation.
