%J 金属学报 %D 1983 %I %X The hydrogen storage behaviour of the Mg-rich rare earth alloys, La_2Mg_(17) and La_2Mg_(16)Ni, has been investigated. Two plateaus related to the reactions Mg2Ni+2H_2(?)Mg_2NiH_4 and Mg+H_2(?)MgH_2 respectively exhibit in the pressurecomposition isotherm of La_2Mg_(16)Ni alloy. Partial substitution of Mg by Ni in La_2Mg_(17) gives a two-phase mixture: the major is La_2Mg_(17) type phase and the minor, Mg_2Ni type one. Hydriding of the La_2Mg_(16)Ni alloy leads to the formation of MgH_2, La hydride and Mg_2NiH_4. An experiment was also carried out on the hydrogen absorption by the alloys under either normal temperature and lower pressure or normal pressure and elevated temperature. It was found that La_2Mg_(17) and La_2Mg_(16)Ni seem to be the considerable hydrogen storage materials. %U http://www.alljournals.cn/get_abstract_url.aspx?pcid=5B3AB970F71A803DEACDC0559115BFCF0A068CD97DD29835&cid=AB188D3B70B071C57EB64E395D864ECE&jid=B061E1135F1CBDEE96CD96C109FEAD65&aid=FD046B2B3BA4DC0EC12AE4D4A094939D&yid=A7F20A391020FDEE&vid=2A8D03AD8076A2E3&iid=E158A972A605785F&sid=6270DC1B5693DDAF&eid=8477411EEDB08A86&journal_id=0412-1961&journal_name=金属学报&referenced_num=0&reference_num=1
