Embodiment 1

[0029] The raw materials are Y (purity ≥ 99.6%), Fe (purity ≥ 99.5%), and the chemical composition is YFe 3 . The alloy adopts a medium-vacuum medium-frequency induction furnace. When the melting temperature reaches 1600-1800°C, the alloy is completely melted and then refined for 10-30 minutes. Water-cooled mold is used for pouring and rapid solidification to obtain ingots. The pouring temperature is 1550-1750°C; the ingots are broken under the protection of argon atmosphere, and the alloy particles smaller than 30-400 meshes are screened; the alloy particles are heated to 300°C under vacuum conditions. Activate for 60 minutes, then cool to 25°C for hydrogen absorption. The experimental results show that the alloy has a multiphase structure, such as figure 1 shown. The experimental results show that the alloy is a multiphase structure, containing AB 2 (MgCu 2 type), AB 3 (PuNi 3 type) and A 6 B 23 (Th 6 mn 23 type) structure, the main phase structure is A 6 B 23 ,...
