Hydrogen permeability, diffusivity, and solubility have been measured for a Ni-base superalloy, WASPALOY,* over the temperature range of 200 to 560 °C. Measurements were made with various surface conditions. The hydrogen diffusivity and permeability values for Pd-coated WASPALOY were between those for pure nickel and for austenitic stainless steel. Hydrogen in uncoated WASPALOY had consistently lower effective diffusivity and permeability than in the Pd-coated condition. Gold-plating on WASPALOY or adding H2O to H2 gas substantially reduced both transport parameters, presumably due to slower surface or interface kinetics and lower permeability of hydrogen in the gold layer. Independently measured hydrogen solubility determined by equilibration of bulk specimens with H2 gas was roughly 60 pct of the solubility obtained by dividing the effective diffusivity into the permeation constant. This is discussed on the basis of internal trapping, which reduced the effective diffusivity and resulted in a higher apparent solubility.
