Abstract
Nonevaporable getter alloys containing Zr, Co, and a third component A selected from the rare each metals and mixtures thereof, e.g., mischmetal. A most preferred alloy contains about 80.8 wt % Zr, about 14.2 wt % Co, and about 5 wt % A. These alloys are advantageous because they are suitable for general use, i.e., they have a relatively low activation temperature, are capable of sorbing a wide variety of gases, and minimize the environmental and safety risks associated with known nonevaporable getter alloys.
