Li$$_{2}$$TiO$$_{3}$$ is one of the most promising candidates among the proposed solid breeder materials for fusion reactors. Addition of H$$_{2}$$ to inert sweep gas has been proposed for enhancing the release of bred tritium from breeder material. However, the mass of Li$$_{2}$$TiO$$_{3}$$ was found to decrease with time in the hydrogen atmosphere. This mass change indicates that the oxygen content of the sample decreased, suggesting the change from Ti$$^{4+}$$ to Ti$$^{3+}$$. In order to control the mass change at the time of high temperature use, the development of lithium titanate which has Li$$_{4}$$TiO$$_{4}$$ additive is expected to be effective.
