Problems solved by technology

After 820 cycles at 0.5C, the electrochemical capacity of the hydrogen storage alloy still maintains 320mAh / g, exceeding the LaNi commonly used in Ni-MH batteries. 5 Hydrogen storage alloy powder; however, the disadvantage of this invention is that the constituent elements of the quasicrystalline material are basically selected from the main groups 1, 2, 3, 4 and subgroups 1, 2, 3, 8 of the periodic table of elements, although in the claim The protection is very wide, and the main constituent elements selected are basically active elements such as Mg, Ca, Zn, and Al, which are easily oxidized, which brings difficulties to actual production and application.
