Description

Technical field: [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of direct preparation AB by metal oxide mixture 5 The invention discloses a method for a type hydrogen storage alloy, which belongs to the technical field of an alloy preparation process by electrolysis of a solid oxygen-permeable membrane. Background technique: [0002] Hydrogen energy is known as the green new energy in the 21st century, because 1. Hydrogen energy has a high calorific value, burning 1kg of hydrogen can produce 1.25×10 6 The heat of kJ is equivalent to the heat generated by the complete combustion of 3kg gasoline or 4.5kg coke. 2. The product of hydrogen combustion is water, which has no pollution to the environment and is a green and clean energy. 3. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. It comes from a wide range of sources. It can be produced by decomposing water from natural energy such as solar energy, wind energy, and geothermal energy. It is a renewable resource that c...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The preparation methods of hydrogen storage alloy mainly include 1. Induction melting method: after high-frequency current flows through the water-cooled copper coil, an induced current is generated in the metal charge due to electromagnetic induction, and heat is generated when the induced current flows in the metal charge, so that the metal The furnace charge is heated and melted, but it consumes a lot of power, and the alloy structure is difficult to control; 2. Mechanical alloying (MA, MG) method: use a grinding ball with great kinetic energy to repeatedly extrude and deform different powders. Fracture, welding, and extrusion deformation into an intermediate composite
