Abstract

Ti-V-Mn based alloys, consisting mainly of the hexagonal C14 Laves and BCC phases, with nominal compositions of Ti_0.5V_0.4TM_0.1Mn, where TM = Nb, Cr, Mo, Ta and Ti_0.5V_0.5-_xNb_xMn, where x = 0.05 and 0.2, were synthesised by arc melting. It was found that small amounts of Nb substituted for V (x = 0.05 and 0.1) resulted in smaller hysteresis between absorption and desorption as well as higher hydrogen dissociation pressures, compared to Ti_0.5V_0.5Mn. These findings show that Ti_0.5-V_0.45-Nb_0.05-Mn is a suitable alloy to be used in a metal hydride compressor to deliver a pressure of 650 bar in the temperature range 303-473 K.
