The alloy material storing hydrogen of used for negative electrode of alkaline cell and method for making thereof
The present invention relates to the alloy material storing hydrogen that electrode is used, alkaline storage battery used more precisely alloy material storing hydrogen.
In recent years, the MH-Ni battery was with its electrochemistry capacitance height, and was pollution-free, can heavy-current discharge, and characteristic surfaces such as memory-less effect cause researchers' very big concern.And its selection as the alloy material storing hydrogen of negative electrode active material is one of key technology.
At present, mainly containing titanium system and rare earth in the alloy material storing hydrogen of having developed is two big classes.Has CaCu 5The AB of type structure 5Type rare earth based material is one of hydrogen storage material the most widely of using.The LaNi5 alloy material storing hydrogen of Ying Yonging the earliest, its initial capacity is higher, but decline is too fast, after 100 charge and discharge cycles, has just decayed 40%.In order to improve its chemical cycle stability, J.J.Gwillesns[J.Less-Common Met.129 (1987) 13], replace the part lanthanum with Nd, replace some of nickel with cobalt, silicon or aluminium and form the alloy material storing hydrogen of La0.8Nd0.2Co0.4Si0.1Ni2.5 and La0.8Nd0.2Co2.4Al0.1Ni2.5, and greatly improved electrochemistry cycle life.After 1000 electrochemistry circulations, only decay 30%.But because the employed raw material of alloy material storing hydrogen is pure lanthanum, pure neodymium, the content of cobalt is also high, thereby cost is increased greatly, has limited in industrial possibility of its application.[Power Sources 12 (1988) for people such as H.Ogawa, 383], (Mm) comes the instead of pure lanthanum with cerium-rich mischmetal, developed the alloy material storing hydrogen of MmNi3.55Co0.75Mn0.4Al0.3, reduced its manufacturing cost widely, made its industrialization become possibility.People such as Lei Yongquan (novel hydrogen storage material and application scientific seminar paper compilation 1990.12 thereof, Tianjin P24) have adopted lanthanum rich mischmetal to substitute the polynary storage alloy material for hydrogen that pure lanthanum has formed MlNi3.45 (CoMnTi) 1.55.
Chinese patent literature CN1078827A has introduced the hydrogen-storing alloy as electrode material that a kind of Ni-H cell is used, it is a kind ofly to replace lanthanum among the LaNi5 with a certain proportion of lanthanum rich mischmetal (Ml) and a certain proportion of cerium-rich mischmetal (Mm), forms Ml with copper, cobalt, aluminium, manganese rice replacement part of nickel 1The hydrogen-storing alloy as electrode material of-xMmxNi5-y (CoAlMn) yCuz (Ml) is lanthanum rich mischmetal, and wherein lanthanum 47.4%, cerium 3.3%, and neodymium 37.7%, samarium<0.2%, all the other are other rare earths.(Mm) be cerium-rich mischmetal, wherein lanthanum 25%, cerium 48-50%, neodymium 18%, praseodymium 7-8%, remainder is other rare earths, X=0.2-0.8, y=Co+Mn+Al=0.5-3.0, cobalt≤0.8 Z=0.3-1.3 wherein, its electrode capacity (mAh/g) is 250-274.
At present, in mishmetal manufacturer, because the restriction of some condition, (Ml is a lanthanum rich mischmetal for Mm, Ml that the different lot numbers of different manufacturers or same producer are produced, Mm is a cerium-rich rare earth) in four main rare-earth elements Las, Ce, Pr, the atomic percent of Nd bigger fluctuation is all arranged, owing to having caused, the fluctuation of these compositions the instability of hydrogen storage material chemical property hindered the development of its suitability for industrialized production.
When the electrochemistry of research AB5 type hydrogen storage alloy material circulates fail machine-processed, find that alloy material storing hydrogen when electrochemical hydrogenation and dehydrogenation, volumetric expansion and contraction takes place, make the further efflorescence of alloy material storing hydrogen.Because the efflorescence of alloy material storing hydrogen has aggravated the corrosion of electrode surface, and causes the decline of electrode capacity.
Purpose of the present invention just is to work out a kind of alloy material storing hydrogen of new used for negative electrode of alkaline cell, make four the main rare-earth elements of lanthanum of this alloy material storing hydrogen in its raw material (Mm), (Ml), cerium, praseodymium, when neodymium atom percentage has bigger fluctuation and do not cause the instability of alloy material storing hydrogen chemical property, promote its direction to develop to suitability for industrialized production.
Another object of the present invention is exactly to make the alloy material storing hydrogen of producing be difficult for efflorescence, is of value to the electrochemistry cycle performance that improves alloy material storing hydrogen.
A further object of the present invention is exactly to develop the method for the alloy material storing hydrogen of preparation used for negative electrode of alkaline cell of the present invention, makes this method simple, and product cost is low.
