Electrochemical characteristics of AB5-type hydrogen storage alloys

Improvement in the low-temperature performance of AB5 metal hydride alloys by Fe-addition

“…Most of the Fe-substitution in rare-earth based AB 5 metal hydride (MH) alloys are for the purpose of replacing expensive Co [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. The general drawback of this approach is the resulting sacrifice in cycle life due to an increase in the pulverization rate during cycling.…”

Effects of Mo additive on the structure and electrochemical properties of low-temperature AB5 metal hydride alloys

“…Recently, AB 2 [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8], AB 3 [9][10][11], and AB 5 [12][13][14][15], and BCC [16,17] metal hydride (MH) alloys have been intensively investigated to improve the performance of nickel metal hydride (Ni/MH) batteries. In one direction of compositional modification, molybdenum was found to be beneficial to the low-temperature applications of Ni/MH batteries [18][19][20][21].…”

Simulation of Ni-MH Batteries via an Equivalent Circuit Model for Energy Storage Applications

“…Previously, Kuriyama et al [17] fully developed a deterioration study of metal-hydride (MH) electrodes with impedance measurement and EC simulation. Recently, researches focused more on characterization of MH electrodes with different structures [18][19][20]. At the era of lead-acid (Pb-acid) and nickel cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries, EIS had been proposed as a promising technique to monitor and determine the SoC levels of full batteries [21].…”
