Abstract

The intermetallic compound FeTi (with CsC1 structure) is a candidate material for hydrogen storage systems. FeTi forms iron titanium hydride (FeTiHx, where x represents a variable number of hydrogen atoms, up to about 2). In this study, electron microscopy has been used to study (a) the nature of the ‘activation’ process i.e. introduction of hydrogen in FeTi, (b) the morphology and structure of hydride phases and (c) the microstructure of the material after the subsequent removal of hydrogen. For this purpose the same region of the specimens were observed in the electron microscope (a) before the dissolution of hydrogen, (b) after the dissolution of hydrogen and (c) after the removal of hydrogen.
