Abstract
Abstract We report on the synthesis of an electrochemically active Mg0.9Y0.1Ni polynanocrystalline phase by mechanical alloying. This alloy presents an initial capacity of 323 mAh/g that decreases upon cycling to reach a stable value of 220 mAh/g after 30 complete charge/discharge cycles (e.g. 62% capacity retention). Such an increase in capacity retention with respect to pure MgNi alloy (62% instead of 24%) is due to the addition of yttrium that enhances the resistance of the alloy against corrosion in concentrated alkaline media.
