Abstract

Pd71.5Cu12Si16.5 metallic glass ribbons as wide as 10mm were prepared by splat quenching. Structure was identified with X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrums from the conventional X-ray diffractometer and also short wavelength X-ray stress analyzer. The results confirm fully amorphous structure of the ribbons. Multiple H2 adsorption and desorption cycles under a pressure of 100kPa were carried out in the metallic glass ribbon and also pure palladium membrane for comparison. The former didn’t show any cracks after more than 10 cycles, and thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS) measurement confirms that hydrogen was adsorbed abundantly in the metallic glass ribbon. Pd71.5Cu12Si16.5 metallic glass ribbons demonstrate excellent hydrogen brittleness resistance.
