It is described a process for the production of porous non-evaporable getter materials comprising at least one first element selected between Zr and Ti and at least one second element selected among V, Cr, Mn and Ni, wherein the starting metal powders are produced by reduction with calcium hydride of the corresponding oxides and the thus obtained powders are compacted and sintered at a value of pressure and temperature in a given range; also described are getter materials that, due to the production process, have a novel distribution of chemical composition through the getter body resulting in an improved combination of mechanical and gas-sorption properties.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A nonevaporable getter made from a powder alloy, characterized in that it is made from an alloy whose first component comprises at least one element from the group Ti, Zr, whose second component comprises at least one element from the group V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, and whose third component is calcium oxide (CaO), the ratio of the first and second components in terms of the getter weight being from 10:1 to 1:5 and CaO content being not over 1%, the concentrations of said elements in local zones of the getter being uneven throughout the getter and such that the mean value of the ratios of concentrations measured by means of electron-scan microscopy for any selected element in at least three arbitrarily chosen pairs of points does not exceed 30.
