N2 - Tritium exchange and enrichment was studied for several different metal salts, e.g., AlF3·H2O, FeO(OH), CsI, CsF, NaI, NaF and Al(OH)3 using a cryosublimation apparatus. Experiments were performed below equilibrium vapor pressure to avoid any isotope effects. A comparable tritium enrichment factor of 1.14 to 1.43 was obtained for all systems, except for CsF, which gave an enrichment factor of 1.93. These results confirm the concept, that 3H is accumulated in weak hydrogen bonds as already observed in organic molecules.
