Investigation of H Sorption and Corrosion Properties of Sm2MnxNi7−x (0 ≤ x < 0.5) Intermetallic Compounds Forming Reversible Hydrides
2020
Intermetallic compounds are key materials for energy transition as they form reversible hydrides that can be used for solid state hydrogen storage or as anodes in batteries. AB y compounds ( A = Rare Earth (RE); B = transition metal; 2 0.3 leading to larger and flatter isotherm curves, allowing for reversible capacity >1.4 wt %. Regarding corrosion, the binary compound corrodes in alkaline medium to form rare earth hydroxide and nanoporous nickel. As for the Mn-substituted compounds, a new corrosion product is formed in addition to those above mentioned, as manganese initiates a sacrificial anode mechanism taking place at the early corrosion stage.
