Abstract
On the basis of potentiostatic discharge method, the diffusion rate of atomic hydrogen as well as its solubility in LaNi5 crystal lattice have been evaluated for three LaNi5 powder - paraffin composite electrodes, with different LaNi5 powder particle diameters: 0 - 20 μm, 20 - 50 μm and 50 - 100 μm. The chronoamperommetric tests have been carried out in strong alkaline (6 M KOH), deaerated solution, at 25°C. Apparent hydrogen diffusion coefficients have been determined using Crank’s spherical diffusion model. It has been shown, that increase of particle size is prone to increase of hydrogen apparent diffusion coefficient and to decrease of hydrogen concentration in the solid phase. To explain the granulation effect on hydrogenation ability parameters, the inhibition of hydrogen transport by surfacial corrosion products present on powder particles has been assumed.
