Embodiment 1

[0029] carry out La 0.9 Mg 0.1 Ni 4.25 al 0.75 For the smelting of hydrogen storage alloys, raw material metals with a purity of 99.9% are selected, and the burning loss of La and Al is compensated by 2%, and the burning loss of Mg is compensated by 15%. Other materials do not need to be compensated due to small burning losses. The Ni raw material is composed of a foil material and a bulk material, and other metal raw materials are all bulk materials. The amount of foil material is enough to completely wrap the Mg block, and the remaining Ni metal is made of block material. Put the prepared La, Ni (lump) and Al into the water-cooled copper crucible in the vacuum magnetic levitation induction melting furnace, among which La is placed at the bottom of the water-cooled copper crucible, then Al is placed, and Ni (lump) is placed on the top ). In addition, after wrapping the Mg block with Ni foil, put it into the holding bottle in the vacuum magnetic levitation induction melti...

Abstract

The invention discloses an AB5 type rare earth hydrogen storage alloy for tritium storage in the field of hydrogen storage alloys and a preparation method of the AB5 type rare earth hydrogen storage alloy. The general formula of the composition of the alloy is La[1-x]MgxNi[5-y]My, wherein M refers to Mn or Al, x is more than 0 and less than or equal to 0.2, and y is more than 0 and less than or equal to 1.2. The hydrogen storage alloy is prepared by the following steps: smelting in three steps adopting a vacuum levitation induction melting furnace and adopting a method of coating Mg blocks with Ni foil according to space placement sequence of raw material metals in a water cooled copper crucible; and finally, encapsulating the metals in a quartz tube, performing heat treatment at a high temperature of 900-1100 DEG C for 4-10 hours, and performing furnace cooling, thereby obtaining the product. The alloy production method is simple, small in Mg volatilization amount, stable in components, easy to activate, low in platform pressure and slight in hydrogen absorption and desorption lag, has good hydrogen absorption and desorption dynamic performances and is suitable for tritium storage.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an AB 5 type metal hydrogen storage material, providing an AB suitable for tritium storage 5 The invention discloses a type rare earth hydrogen storage alloy and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of hydrogen storage alloys. Background technique [0002] Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen, and its own decay nuclear reaction is: T→ 3 He+β, where E βmax =18.6MeV, E β =5.7keV, T 1 / 2 =12.33a, belongs to low toxicity radioactive isotope. Since it was discovered in 1934, people have carried out a lot of in-depth research work on its physical and chemical properties, as well as application technology. At present, tritium has become one of the most widely used nuclides in the field of nuclear science and technology. Technologies such as tritium targets for neutron generators, tritium ignition electrodes for tritium-type TR tubes, tritium tracers, and tritium light sources have been quite ma...
