  • Non-evaporable ternary gettering alloy and method of use for the sorption of water, water vapor and other gases
    Patent number: 4312669
    Abstract: A non-evaporable getter alloy is provided which can be used in a process for the sorption of gas from a closed vessel comprising the step of:introducing into the vessel a non-evaporable ternary gettering alloy whose composition in weight percent when plotted on a ternary composition diagram in weight percent Zr, weight percent V and weight percent Fe lies with a polygon having as its corners the points defined by:(a) 75% Zr-20% V-5% Fe(b) 45% Zr-20% V-35% Fe(c) 45% Zr-50% V-5% Fesuch alloys can sorb water vapor without the release of H.sub.2 between 200.degree.-350.degree. C. and can be used in a wide temperature range for the sorption of other gases. They can also be activated in short times at relatively low temperatures, to be used as a getter at room temperature.

  • Getter device and process for using such
    Patent number: 4306887
    Abstract: Zr-Fe alloys (15%-30% by wt Fe, balance Zr) start to sorb hydrogen at temperatures between 200.degree. and 250.degree. C. They are particularly useful for the sorption of hydrogen within the outer jacket of high intensity discharge lamps.

  • Supported getter
    Patent number: 4146497
    Abstract: This invention relates to a supported getter device comprising a metallic support structure consisting of a three-dimensional network defining a multiplicity of inter-connecting free cells and a particulate getter material substantially filling at least some of said free cells. This invention also relates to a getter device comprising at least one attachment zone of a compressed three-dimensional metal network attached to at least one supported getter material zone comprising a three-dimensional metal network. Methods of making the getter devices are described.
