Preparation of hydrogen storage alloys for applications of hydrogen storage and transportation

This paper investigates the composition design and processing of hydrogen storage alloys (HSA) for H2 storage and transportation (ST the H2 absorption capacity could extend to 1.7 wt.% without increasing plateau-slope. The processing improvement, a synthesizing technique based on the SMQ process, was established which allowed the segregation control and inhibited second-phase transformation, thus avoiding formation of a plateau-slope.
