A novel approach based on thermal diffusion was used to achieve controllable Mg content in A2B7-type La-Mg-Ni-based alloys.The formation mechanism of the A2B7-type phase as a result of the thermal diffusion process and the effect of Mg content on hydrogen storage perfor-mance were investigated.X-ray diffraction(XRD)patterns and Rietveld refinement results showed that increased Mg transformed the LaNi5 phase in the La0.74Sm0.03Y0.23-Ni4.32Al0.04 precursor alloy into a superlattice structure.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM)images showed that Mg was evenly distributed in the alloy bulk.Mg in the superlattice significantly inhibited the phase decomposition of the superlattice structure during the hydrogen absorp-tion/desorption cycles.An A2B7-type La0.57S-m0.02Y0.18Mg0.23Ni3.38Al0.03 alloy composed of Gd2Co7 and Ce2Ni7 phases was successfully synthesized.The pressure-composition isotherm profiles showed that the alloy had a hydrogen storage capacity as high as 1.73 wt%,with good cycling stability.After 50 cycles of hydrogen absorption/desorption,the alloy retained a hydrogen storage capacity of 1.45 wt%,with a capacity retention rate of up to 84.28%.The Mg thermal diffusion process thus provides a new approach for the controlled preparation of La-Mg-Ni-based alloys.
