Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, in the rare earth-Mg-Ni hydrogen storage alloys disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the hydrogen storage capacity decreases and the hydrogen equilibrium pressure increases, so the internal pressure of the battery tends to increase.

Embodiment 1

[0053] (1) Preparation of negative electrode

[0054] Raw materials of rare earth components were prepared. The details of the rare earth components were 40% La, 52% Sm, and 8% Zr in atomic ratio. Then, using an induction melting furnace, prepared the atomic ratio A block of a hydrogen storage alloy containing raw materials of rare earth components, Mg, Ni, and Al in a ratio of 0.85:0.15:3.5:0.1. The alloy was heat-treated at 1000°C for 10 hours in an argon atmosphere to obtain a composition of (La 0.40 Sm 0.52 A 0.08 ) 0.85 Mg 0.15 Ni 3.5 Al 0.1 An ingot of a rare earth-Mg-Ni hydrogen storage alloy represented by a superlattice structure.

[0055] The ingot of the rare earth-Mg-Ni hydrogen storage alloy was mechanically pulverized in an inert gas atmosphere, and alloy particles having a particle size in the range of 400 to 200 mesh were selected and classified by sieving. When the particle size distribution of the alloy particles was measured using a laser diffraction...

Embodiment 2

[0064] Assemble the nickel-hydrogen secondary battery, except that the composition of the hydrogen storage alloy is (La 0.46 Sm 0.46 Zr 0.08 ) 0.85 Mg 0.15 Ni 3.5 Al 0.1 Other than that, the others are the same as in Example 1.

Embodiment 3

[0066] Assemble the nickel-hydrogen secondary battery, except that the composition of the hydrogen storage alloy is (La 0.48 Sm 0.44 Zr 0.08 ) 0.85 Mg 0.15 Ni 3.5 Al 0.1 Other than that, the others are the same as in Example 1.

Abstract

A nickel metal hydride battery includes particles of hydrogen storage alloys in the negative electrode. Such hydrogen storage alloys have a composition expressed by a general formula: (LaaSmbAc)1-wMgwNixAlyTz. In the formula, A and T denote at least one element selected from the groups consisting of: Pr, Nd, and the like; and V, Nb, and the like, respectively, the subscripts a, b, and c satisfy the relationship given by: a>0; b>0; 0.1>c>=0; and a+b+c=1, and the subscripts w, x, y, and z fall within the range given by: 0.1<w<=1; 0.05<=y<=0.35; 0<=z<=0.5; and 3.2<=x+y+z<=3.8.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a hydrogen storage alloy, a hydrogen storage alloy electrode using the alloy, and a nickel-hydrogen secondary battery. Background technique [0002] In order to achieve higher performance of nickel-hydrogen secondary batteries, it has been proposed to use rare earth-Mg-Ni-based hydrogen storage alloys as negative electrode active materials. The rare-earth-Mg-Ni-based hydrogen storage alloy has more hydrogen storage capacity than the conventional rare-earth-Ni-based hydrogen storage alloy, and is suitable for increasing the capacity of nickel-hydrogen secondary batteries. [0003] On the other hand, the rare earth-Mg-Ni-based hydrogen storage alloy has low alkali resistance, and a nickel-hydrogen secondary battery using the alloy has a problem that the cycle life is shortened. In response to this problem, various studies have been made on the components of rare earths. Among them, there are proposals to reduce the conte...
