Research Abstract |
V based alloys are one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. However, low production cost is necessary for practical use. In this work, in order to substitute V by ferrovanadium, the effect of impurity elements in ferrovanadium on the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation properties has been studied. It has been elucidated that Fe and oxygen in V reduce the hydrogen storage capacity and suppress the diffusion of hydrogen in the V hydride phase. Ferrovanadium is commercially produced from V oxide using the thermite (Goldschmidt) reaction with Al. Therefore, reduction of the oxygen content in V by increasing the Al content and adjustment of the Fe content depending on the raw material cost have been suggested from the results.
