The application discloses a method for preparing a Ti / Ni-based catalyst by electrochemical dealloying and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
magnesium-based
hydrogen storage materials. In view of problems of insufficient active sites, single valence and poor
dispersity of the existing Ti / Ni-based catalyst, the Ti-Ni
alloy is modified by using an electrochemical dealloying process, a dilute
hydrochloric acid is used as an
electrolyte, a Ti-Ni
alloy sheet is used as an
anode, and a
graphite sheet is used as a
cathode to construct an
electrolytic cell, power
electrolysis is performed until the
alloy sheet is completely pulverized, and after centrifugal washing and
drying, the Ti / Ni-based catalyst is obtained. The Ti / Ni-based catalyst is compounded with a
magnesium-based
hydrogen storage material by a mechanical ball milling method, the obtained composite
hydrogen storage material exhibits excellent low-temperature
hydrogen storage capacity, efficient
hydrogen absorption and
desorption kinetic performance and good cycle stability, and effectively solves the technical
bottleneck of a traditional MgH2
system. The preparation method is simple in operation, controllable in cost and scalable, is suitable for practical application scenes such as vehicle-mounted
hydrogen storage, and provides key support for commercialization of the
magnesium-based
hydrogen storage material.
