Table 1.

The migration rate of hydrogen (μg/L per hour) from the inside to outside of various containers

Material of container Migration rate of hydrogen

0–2 h 4–12 h
Polyethylene 225 27.5
Polyethylene terephthalate 135 23.1
Polypropylene 180 20
Glass 190 30
Aluminum 0 1.3
Stainless steel 0 0.6

Note: The aluminum- or stainless steel-made container repressed the movement of hydrogen from inside to outside. Measurements for each material of container were performed more than three times and typically the mean values were described.
