Hydrogenation properties of Mg-based composites prepared by reactive mechanical alloying
A nanocrystalline composite of Mg-LaNi3-Cu has been prepared by reactive mechanical alloying of Mg, Cu and LaNi3 powders after 60 It ball-milling under a hydrogen atmosphere. This composite desorbed 1.06 mass% of hydrogen at 533 K under a hydrogen pressure of 0. 1 MPa. Addition of Cu promotes the hydrogen desorption. (c) 2006 International Association for Hydrogen Energy.
