Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mg alloys were processed by high-pressure torsion so that the grain refinement occurred to the nanosize. Hydrogen absorption became feasible at 423 K with faster hydrogen kinetics. This was due to the introduction of high densities of planar lattice defects such as grain boundaries and stacking faults. High rotation numbers of HPT processing for an MgZr alloy led to atomic order mixture of the elements and it was possible to absorb ~1 wt.% of hydrogen under 9 MPa in ~20 s at room temperature and fully desorb the hydrogen in the air. Two Mg alloys, Mg4NiPd and Mg4NiSn of which compositions were determined based on binding energy engineering, were also processed by HPT. Hydrogen absorption of 1.3% and 0.4%, respectively, was achieved after short time exposure to hydrogen atmosphere at 353 K.
