Abstract
Magnesium containing high entropy alloys have gained attention recently as a potential material for hydrogen storage applications. In this work, five non-equiatomic compositions of MgTiZrNiAl HEAs were synthesized using a high-energy ball milling technique and electrochemically characterized for hydrogen storage performance. The concentrations of Mg and other constituent alloying elements are critical to achieving good storage capacity and other hydrogen storage properties. Interestingly, higher Mg atomic percent (40–50 at%) in the HEA matrix showed high gravimetric capacity, and increasing the constituent element like Ni has significantly enhanced the overall storage capacity, kinetics, and thermodynamic properties. Overall, 1 wt% of hydrogen was electrochemically stored with high reversibility, improved hydrogen diffusion coefficient, and anticorrosion ability.
