Study on electrochemical property of La_(0.75)Mg_(0.25)Ni_(2.85)Co_(0.45–x)(AlSn)_x (x=0.0,0.1,0.2,0.3) alloys

La_(0.75)Mg_(0.25)Ni_(2.85)Co_(0.45–x)(AlSn)_x(AlSn)_x(x=0.0,0.1,0.2,0.3) alloys were prepared by magnetic induction melting method, and the phase composition and electrochemical properties were investigated systematically. The alloys were mainly composed of LaNi5, La2Ni7 and LaNi3 phase, and the cell volume of LaNi5 increased with the Al and Sn contents. For the alloy corresponding to x=0.0, the Cmax and C150 were 348.9 and 185 mA h/g, respectively, then for the alloy electrode with x=0.2, even though the Cmax was only 309.0 mA h/g less than 348.9 mA h/g, the C150 of 231 mA h/g was much higher than 185 mA h/g. And the values of the limit current density, anodic peak current density and hydrogen diffusion coefficient of the La0.75Mg0.25Ni2.85Co0.35(AlS n)0.1(x=0.1) alloy were 1079.5, 1023.8 mA /g and 5.71×10–10 cm2/s, respectively. Which were the highest than that of any other electrodes. These results suggested that the kinetic property of the La_(0.75)Mg_(0.25)Ni_(2.85)Co_(0.45–x)(AlSn)_x(AlSn)_x(x=0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) electrodes could be improved effectively by adding moderate contents of Al and Sn.     

稀土含量对La0.7)(Pr0.75Nd0.25)xMg0.3Ni3.3(Co0.7Al0.3)0.3（x=0.0～0.3）合金电极电化学性能影响

在氩气保护条件下用高频感应悬浮熔炼法制备La0.7(Pr0.75Nd0.25)xMg0.3Ni3.3(Co0.7Al0.3)0.3(x=0.0,0.1,0.2,0.3)合金,研究混合稀土含量对合金储氢和电化学性能的影响。合金XRD相分析结果表明,合金相主要由LaNi5,(La,Pr)Mg2Ni9,(La,Nd)2Ni7和LaNi3相组成。随着Pr和Nd含量的增加,合金吸氢量先增加后减小,最大吸氢量为1.42%(质量分数)(x=0.2),放氢平台变短坪斜增加。合金电极电化学测试表明,电极最大放电容量为378 mAh·g-1(x=0.2),放电容量保持率S100从53.2%(x=0.0)增加到56.2%(x=0.3),增加Pr和Nd的含量可以提高电极的循环稳定性。合金电极电化学阻抗谱、线性极化、Tafel极化和循环伏安特性研究表明,添加适量的Pr和Nd可以提高电极动力学性能。当x=0.1时,合金电极电荷传递电阻Rct和极化电阻Rp较小,交换电流密度I0、极限电流密度IL以及阳极峰电流密度Ip较大,合金电极动力学性能较好。
