Abstract
Results described in the work were obtained in the investigation of the activity of oxide materials prepared by depositing copper oxide on aluminium oxides with developed surface (5-26 % CuO/Оі-Al2O3 and 28 % CuO/Оё-Al2O3), towards hydrogen absorption at a temperature within the range 25-90 оC and hydrogen pressure 40 torr. It was demonstrated that the samples with the high copper oxide content are characterized by satisfactory specific rate of hydrogen oxidation and may be used as the absorbers of hydrogen released during radiolysis, during the transportation of mixed radioactive wastes in tight vessels.
