Представлена первая из трех частей обзора по изучению влияния легирующих элементов на поведение гелия, особенностей развития газовой пористости, объема удерживаемого водорода, введенного разными способами, в сплавах ванадия с Ti, Cr, Wи Ta с быстрым спадом наведенной радиоактивности. Обнаружены одни и те же закономерности влияния химического состава сплавов на захват и удержание водорода независимо от способа его введения: автоклавное насыщение водородом без дефектообразования или ионное внедрение с образованием радиационных дефектов. Установлено, что при легировании ванадия химически активным элементом (сплавы V – Ti) влияние концентрации последнего на параметры формирующейся гелиевой пористости, массовую долю удерживаемого водорода имеют немонотонный характер. Это объяснено особенностями взаимодействия титана с примесями кислорода и азота в ванадии, которые влияют на количество образующегося гидрида титана. Показано, что предварительное облучение сплава ионами гелия увеличивает количество удерживаемого водорода при последующем его внедрении независимо от температуры.
