 note = {New tritium breeding materials that maintain large tritium breeding ratio for thermonuclear fusion reactors should be developed. In this study, we investigate the lithium-vaporization behavior from the sintered bodies of Li8ZrO6 and Li5AlO4 having high lithium atom densities. From the viewpoint of lithium density, we investigate the possibility of using the sintered compacts of Li8ZrO6 and Li5AlO4 as a tritium breeder. Lithium vaporization rates from the sintered
bodies of Li8ZrO6 and Li5AlO4 are high. However, for both materials, the lithium vaporization rate gradually decreases with the annealing time by “self-stabilization” in which the surfaces of each sintered body are covered by the
stable layer of the second phase. Considering the temperature dependency of equivalent vapor pressure and the volume fraction of tritium breeding material loaded at high-temperature region, it is suggested that the sintered compacts of Li8ZrO6 and Li5AlO4 have high potentials for the tritium breeder.},
