Abstract

Mg-5wt%Ni-2.5wt%Fe-2.5wt%V (named Mg-5Ni-2.5Fe-2.5V) powder was prepared by reactive mechanical grinding using a planetary ball mill. The activation process, the changes in phase and microstructure with hydriding-dehydriding cycling, and the variations in the hydriding and dehydriding rates with temperature were investigated. The rate-controlling step for the dehydriding reaction of Mg-5Ni-2.5Fe-2.5V was analyzed by using a spherical moving boundary model. As the temperature increased from 473 K through 623 K, the initial hydrogen absorption rate under 12 bar H 2 decreased, while the hydrogen desorption rate under 1.0 bar H 2 increased.
