Background technology
In recent years, because the development of mobile electronic device and the revolution of traffic power source, the research and development of the high tension battery energy have become the focus of countries in the world academia and Industrial Revolution.Nickel metal hydride battery is subjected to extensive attention because of advantage such as energy height, security are good, pollution-free, memory-less effect, is one of main supplying cell type of electronics.
As the negative electrode active material that uses for nickel-hydrogen battery is hydrogen-storage alloy, and the performance of hydrogen-storage alloy directly influences the capacity of the battery that adopts this hydrogen-storage alloy and cycle performance etc.What at present, research was more is with LaNi 5AB for the basis 5The type hydrogen-storage alloy, AB 5The type hydrogen-storage alloy is because platform is pressed moderately, and chemical property is good, as the negative electrode active material practicability of nickel metal hydride battery.To AB 5The research of type hydrogen-storage alloy mainly concentrates on the substituting of metallic element of A, B both sides, by substituting with the metallic element of other element to A, B both sides, thus the activation performance of raising hydrogen-storage alloy.
At present, B side element generally adopts one or more part displacements Ni metallic element of Co in the transition metal, Al, Mn, Cr, Cu, Fe, Si and Ti etc.A side element generally adopts other rare earth elements such as Ce, Pr, Nd etc. partly to substitute the La element, and perhaps the A side directly adopts mishmetal, perhaps adopts metallic element Ca, Ti, Zr etc. partly to replace the La element of A side.
Nickel, cobalt are elements indispensable in the storage alloy material for hydrogen, and wherein nickel is to the alloy heavy body, and high-rate charge-discharge capability plays an important role; Cobalt is to the chemical property of alloy, and especially the stable circulation performance plays key effect.So commercial AB 5In the type hydrogen-storage alloy, as hydrogen-storage alloy MmNi 3.55Co 0.75Mn 0.4Al 0.3, all contain higher cobalt, nickel, costing an arm and a leg of cobalt wherein though cobalt contents only about 10wt%, accounts for 40%~50% of raw materials cost, therefore reduced the cobalt contents in the storage alloy material for hydrogen, can reduce the alloy raw material cost greatly.
In order to reduce the content of high price cobalt in the hydrogen-storage alloy, the general partly or entirely alternative cobalt element of comparatively cheap metallic element that in alloy, adopts, thereby reduced cost of alloy significantly, should keep the good initial stage activation performance of hydrogen-storage alloy, loading capacity performance and cycle performance simultaneously.The unit that is commonly used to alternative Co have Fe, Cu etc.But result of study shows, along with the raising of Fe element add-on in the alloy, though suitable room temperature cyclical stability when hydrogen-storage alloy still keeps cobalt contents higher, the loading capacity of alloy descends, and alloy has the tendency of surface passivation, causes its high-rate discharge ability to reduce; Because the atomic radius of Cu greater than Ni, substitutes the increase of measuring with Cu, lattice constant and unit cell volume increase, and density reduces, and the volumetric expansion behind the suction hydrogen reduces, and hydride stability improves, but platform pressure and hydrogen storage amount descend.In general, Cu substitutes Co in hydrogen-storage alloy, can make alloy have stable circulation performance preferably, but can make alloy surface generate the zone of oxidation of thicker Cu in working cycle, cause the high-rate discharge ability of alloy to reduce, and the electrochemistry capacitance of alloy is descended.
Cobalt contents reduces in the alloy though aforesaid method can make effectively, and the high-rate discharge ability of battery is not well improved.
