TY - JOUR AU1 - Nowak, M. AU2 - Jurczyk, M. AB - Nanostructured composite Mg2Ni/LaNi5 materials have been synthesised using the mechanical alloying process. Hydrogen storage capacities and discharge capacities of the produced materials have been measured. The results show that nanostructured 50% Mg1.5Mn0.5Ni/50% LaNi3.75Mn0.75Al0.25Co0.25 composite material releases 1.6 wt.% hydrogen at room temperature. The nanocrystalline metal hydrides offer a breakthrough in prospects for practical applications. Their excellent properties (significantly exceeding traditional hydrides) are a result of the combined engineering of many factors: alloy composition, surface properties, microstructure, grain size and others.
