Abstract

Ti 10V 84− x Fe 6Zr x ( x = 1, 2, 4, 6, 8) hydrogen storage alloys were prepared by induction melting with magnetic levitation, and the effects of Zr content on the microstructures and hydrogen storage properties have been investigated systematically. The results show that the alloy with x = 1 has a single V-based solid solution phase with BCC structure, while other alloys with x = 2–8 consist of a BCC main phase and a C14 type Laves secondary phase, and the abundance ratio of the secondary phase increases with increasing Zr content. As the Zr content in the alloy increases, the activation behavior is improved, but the hydrogen absorption and desorption capacities decrease gradually. For the alloy with the Zr content of x = 1, the best overall hydrogen storage properties are obtained.
