Hydrogen Sorption Behaviour of Mg-5wt.%La Alloys after the Initial Hydrogen Absorption Process
International journal of hydrogen energy(2022)
摘要
In our earlier study, it has been shown that trace Na additions can improve the reaction kinetics of Mg-5%La (wt.%) alloys during the first absorption. However, the subsequent hydrogen desorption/absorption process of the Mg-5%La after the first absorption has not been investigated. In this study, we have investigated the hydrogen sorption behaviour of the Mg-5%La alloy after the first absorption in terms of phase evolution, and lattice expansion properties during desorption as function of temperature using in-situ synchrotron Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD) and in-situ High Voltage Transmission Electron Microscopy (HVTEM). Two distinct phase evolutions, a continuous phase transformation of LaH3 -> LaH2 + 1/2 H2 (from 250 degrees C) and decomposition of MgH2 -> Mg + H2 (between 440 and 460 degrees C) were identified during the desorption. It is determined that this alloy is cyclable in the absence of Mg12La intermetallic during the subsequent absorption/desorption cycling after the first hydrogen absorption.
