Abstract
Abstract Mg–23.5 wt.%Ni–(5, 10 and 15 wt.%)La alloys were prepared by gravity casting and their hydrogen-storage properties were examined after pulverizing. The gravity cast Mg–23.5Ni–(5, 10 and 15)La alloys consist of α-Mg, Mg2Ni and Mg17La2 phases. The activated Mg–23.5Ni–10La alloy has the highest hydrogen-storage capacity of 4.96 wt.%H (from P–C–T curve) and the highest initial hydriding rate (hydrogen content 3.83 wt.%H at 10 min) with an initial hydrogen pressure in the channel of 11 bar H2 at 573 K. This is attributed to its containing the largest amount of the Mg17La2 phase, which is easily dissociable during the hydriding reaction.
