Structure and Electrochemical Properties of La0.6R0.2Mg0.2(NiCoAlMn)3.3 Hydrogen Storage Alloys
La0.6R0.2Mg0.2(NiCoAlMn)3.3 hydrogen storage alloys were prepared by induction melting and then treated by annealing process
and effects of rare earth R (R is La
Ce
Pr
Nd and Y) substituted for La on the structure and electro-chemical properties were investigated by XRD (X-ray diffraction) and EPMA. The results reveal that the La0.6R0.2Mg0.2(NiCoAlMn)3.3 hydrogen storage alloys consist of CaCu5-type phase as matrix and Ce2Ni7 and PuNi3-type as secondary phase. Addition of Ce
Pr
Nd is not changed the phase constituent of the alloy. However
CaCu5-type phase is decreased and Ce2Ni7-type phase is increased obviously with Y addition
and phase abundance of Ce2Ni7-type phase reaches 79.03%
meanwhile
Y addition can lead to the disappearance of Gd2Co7-type phase. Electrochemical measurements show that activation performance of the alloy is slightly affected by the Ce
Pr
Nd and Y element
however
maximum discharge capacities of the alloy are improved to some extent with Pr
Nd
Y substituted for La partially
in which maximum discharge capacity reaches up to 392.6 mAg/g with Y. In addition
cyclic stability of the alloys with Y substituted for La is increased obviously
increased by 90.3%.
