Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal materials, in particular to an aluminum alloy for hydrogen production by hydrolysis and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Energy is an important foundation and guarantee for the survival and continuous development of human society. Energy shortage and environmental pollution have become two major problems facing the development of contemporary human society. At this stage, the world's energy composition is still composed of coal, oil and natural gas. Mainly traditional energy. Since these fossil fuels are non-renewable, the development and utilization of clean energy is imminent. Hydrogen has a high energy density, and the oxidation reaction product is only water, so it is an ideal fuel. The effective use of hydrogen energy can alleviate the energy crisis, reduce environmental pollution and promote the development of renewable energy. It is regarded as the clean energy wi...
