Abstract
The present invention relates to the reaction of hydrogen gas with alloys having body-centered cubic phase structure at a temperature of less than 100.degree. C. which comprise titanium and a second metal selected from the group consisting of zirconium, rhenium, manganese, and iron, and further comprising when the second metal is zirconium or rhenium, at least about 1 atom percent of a third metal selected from the group of aluminum, cobalt, chromium, iron, manganese, nickel, copper, silicon, germanium, gallium and mixtures thereof. The alloys of this invention react with hydrogen at a reaction rate much faster than prior art materials.
