The invention relates to an easily-activated Ti-Fe-Y-Mn-Zr-Co-Zn-based
hydrogen storage
alloy and a preparation method thereof, belongs to the technical field of
hydrogen storage
alloy materials, and solves at least one of the problems of
high activation difficulty, long activation period, poor
hydrogen absorption and
desorption dynamic performance and the like of a Ti-Fe-based
hydrogen storage alloy in the prior art. The invention provides a Ti-Fe-Y-Mn-Zr-Co-Zn based
hydrogen storage alloy easy to activate, the
chemical formula of the
hydrogen storage alloy is Ti 1.15, Fe 0.8, Y 0.03, Mn 0.35-x-y-z ZrxCoyZnz, x, y and z are atomic ratios, x is larger than or equal to 0.05 and smaller than or equal to 0.15, y is larger than or equal to 0.02 and smaller than or equal to 0.1, and z is larger than or equal to 0.02 and smaller than or equal to 0.1. The Ti-Fe-Y-Mn-Zr-Co-Zn based hydrogen storage alloy provided by the invention obtains good activation performance and
hydrogen absorption and
desorption performance by means of component design and preparation
process improvement, can be activated at one time under the conditions of 30 DEG C and 3 MPa, and has the hydrogen storage capacity of more than or equal to 1.69 wt.%, the
hydrogen absorption platform pressure of more than or equal to 0.39 MPa and the
hydrogen desorption platform pressure of more than or equal to 0.3 MPa.
