Abstract

In this paper, Al-based composites used for hydrogen production have been prepared by ball milling process. In order to reduce the cost of Al-based composites, we prepared micro/nano sized Al2O3 with the by-product of Al-based composites hydrolysis reaction. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Mastersizer 2000 size analyzer are used for the analysis of the samples. The results show that Al2O3 phase is formed after the by-product milling for 4h and the by-product milled for 6h can reach micro/nanometer level. It is beneficial to reduce the cost of Al-based composites, which can promote the wide application of Al-based composites in the field of hydrogen production.
