Description

Under-stoichiometric magnesium-containing C15 structure Laves phase room temperature reversible hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrogen storage materials, and particularly relates to a low-stoichiometry magnesium-containing C15 structure Laves phase room-temperature reversible hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Today, energy crisis and environmental crisis force people to develop clean energy. Among them, hydrogen energy is considered as an ideal carrier of renewable energy sources due to advantages of cleanliness, high efficiency, environmental protection, sustainable utilization, etc., but the development of the hydrogen energy industry is still limited by the lack of efficient and safe hydrogen storage methods. Compared with liquid hydrogen storage and gaseous hydrogen storage, solid hydrogen storage is widely studied due to the advantages of higher energy density and safety, lower cost, convenience in transportation and the like. Currently, the hydrogen storage alloys are mainly of rare earth type, ferrotitanium type, zirconium type, vanadium type and magnesium type. Wherein, the rare earth hydrogen storage alloy has lower hydrogen storage capacity, high cost and poor cycle performance; the ferrotitanium hydrogen storage alloy has a Laves phase crystal structure, so that the alloy has the advantages of high hydrogen storage capacity, long cycle life and the like, but is difficult to activate; the hydrogen release temperature of the zirconium hydrogen storage alloy is higher; although both vanadium-based and magnesium-based hydrogen storage alloys have high hydrogen storage capacity, the problems of too high hydrogen release temperature, poor dynamic performance and the like exist, so that a novel hydrogen storage alloy still needs to be explored at present, and the appearance of high-entropy alloy possibly provides a novel thought for researching novel hydrogen storage materials.
The high-entropy alloy consists of five or more elements including a high-entropy effect, a cocktail effect, a lattice distortion effect and a delayed diffusion effect, and the four effects have a certain effect on obtaining a hydrogen storage alloy excellent in hydrogen storage performance. The high entropy effect provides a certain condition for the high entropy alloy to form a single-phase solid solution; the difference in atomic radii causes severe lattice distortion, which results in the alloy having more lattice gaps, defects, and strains, providing more vacancies and channels, which facilitate diffusion, dissociation, and recombination of hydrogen atoms; the hysteresis diffusion effect provides a basis for the high-entropy alloy to have good hydrogen storage capacity; meanwhile, under the influence of cocktail effect, all principal elements affect alloy performance together, and due to the diversity of element selection, the adjustability of element proportion provides possibility for preparing high-entropy alloy with comprehensive performance meeting the requirement of hydrogen storage application.
In recent years, researchers at home and abroad are increasingly researching the hydrogen storage performance of high-entropy alloy. Among them, intermetallic high entropy alloys have been widely studied for their high hydrogen storage capacity, good low temperature hydrogen release performance, and good kinetics of hydrogen absorption and release, such as AB 2 The TiZrCrMnFeNi high entropy alloy has a room temperature reversible hydrogen storage capacity of 1.6wt.% [ P Edalati, R Floriano, A Mohammadi, et al, script a materials, 2020,178:387-390.];AB 2 The TiZrFeMnCrV high entropy alloy still has a hydrogen storage capacity of about 1.76wt.% after 50 cycles [ J Chen, Z Li, H Huang, et al script a materials, 2022,212:114548.]. In addition, studies have shown that designing different A/B intermetallic high entropy alloys has the potential to improve the hydrogen storage properties of the alloys, such as A with the C14 Laves phase as the major phase at 473K temperature 3 B 2 The TiZrNbCrFe high entropy alloy even has a reversible hydrogen storage capacity of 1.9wt.% [ R Floriano, G Zepon, K Edalati, et al International Journal of Hydrogen Energy,2021,46 (46): 23757-23766.]. However, the intermetallic high entropy alloys studied so far all have a C14 Laves phase as the main phase, but the C15Laves phase crystal structure has a specific C14 Laves phase with higher stacking fault density and this defect structure allows the alloy to exhibit better hydrogen storage properties, e.g. Young et al [ K.Young, T.Ouchi, B.Huang, et al journal of Alloys and composites 2010,506 (2): 841-848]It was found that an alloy having a C15Laves phase as a main phase exhibits better performance in terms of hydrogen storage amount, reversible hydrogen storage amount, high-power discharge performance, hydrogen diffusion, and low-temperature performance than an alloy having a C14 Laves phase as a main phase. Therefore, designing intermetallic high-entropy alloys with the C15Laves phase as the main phase may exhibit more excellent hydrogen storage properties.
In addition, the non-stoichiometric composition design is also one of the means to improve the hydrogen storage properties of intermetallic compounds due to the following aspects: on the one hand because non-stoichiometric alloys generally possess higher defect densities relative to alloys of strictly stoichiometric composition; on the other hand, the non-stoichiometric method is adopted to change the proportion of each atom and the atomic occupation in the unit cell, so as to achieve the effect of regulating the chemical environment of tetrahedral gaps and the unit cell volume, and the change of the microstructure can bring great change to the hydrogen storage performance of the alloy. For example: YFe relative to stoichiometry 1.5 Al 0.5 Under-stoichiometric YFe for alloys 1.5 Al 0.5-x The (x=0.1, 0.2) alloy has improved hydrogenation capacity and hydrogen absorption rate and has a larger reversible capacity [ Z Li, H Wang, L Ouyang, et al journal of Alloys and Compounds,2017,704:491-498.]. In addition, because metal Mg has the advantages of high hydrogen storage capacity, low density, wide sources, low cost and the like, the addition of Mg into Laves-phase intermetallic high-entropy alloy can better reduce the density of the alloy and has the possibility of further improving the hydrogen storage capacity, but at present, the research on magnesium-containing Laves-phase hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy in domestic and foreign literature is not available, which is possibly related to the preparation of the magnesium-containing Laves-phase hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy: the traditional smelting method cannot accurately prepare the magnesium-containing Laves-phase hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy because of the low smelting boiling point of Mg, and the mechanical alloying is also difficult to prepare the high-purity Laves-phase magnesium-containing hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy, so that the material performance is deteriorated.
In view of the above, how to design and prepare a Laves phase room temperature reversible hydrogen storage high entropy alloy with a hypostoichiometric magnesium-containing C15 structure, which has important practical application value.

The invention also provides a preparation method of the under-stoichiometric magnesium-containing C15 structure Laves phase room temperature reversible hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy, which comprises the following steps:

2) Mechanically crushing the obtained precursor sample into precursor powder of 100-300 meshes by using a stainless steel mortar in a glove box;
3) According to Zr 0.85 Ti 0.15 Mg x Ni 1.2 Mn 0.56 V 0.12 Fe 0.12 Weighing precursor powder and Mg powder according to the molecular formula of the alloy, and mixing the precursor powder and the Mg powder in a glove box by hand uniformly;
4) Weighing a certain amount of mixed samples by using an analytical balance in a glove box, and pressing the mixed samples into tablets with the diameter of 10-15 mm by adopting a powder tablet press;
5) Putting the pressed sheet into a stainless steel closed container in a glove box, and filling argon with the pressure of 0.2-0.4 MPa; and then placing the alloy into an annealing furnace for sintering, cooling the alloy to room temperature along with the furnace after the sintering is completed, and taking out the alloy to finally obtain the low-stoichiometric magnesium-containing C15 structure Laves phase room-temperature reversible hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy.
Further, in the step 1), the purity of the zirconium block is more than or equal to 99.7%, the purity of the titanium block is more than or equal to 99.9%, the purity of the vanadium block is more than or equal to 99.9%, the purity of the iron block is more than or equal to 99.9%, the purity of the nickel sheet is more than or equal to 99.5%, and the purity of the manganese sheet is more than or equal to 99.5%.

Further, in the step 5), the sintering temperature of the sintering process is 750-850 ℃ and the sintering time is 12-48 h.
The invention also provides application of the under-stoichiometric magnesium-containing C15 structure Laves phase room temperature reversible hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy in hydrogen storage, and the hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy can be used for hydrogen storage after the activity of the hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy is obtained by carrying out hydrogen absorption and desorption circulation for 1-2 times at the temperature of 250 ℃ and the pressure of 3.5MPa before the hydrogen storage function of the high-entropy alloy is utilized.
The principle of the invention is as follows: in Zr (Zr) 0.85 Ti 0.15 Ni 1.2 Mn 0.56 V 0.12 Fe 0.12 The hydrogen storage performance of the alloy is further improved by adding light element Mg on the basis of the high-entropy alloy, which is attributable to the following two aspects: on one hand, the addition of light element Mg obviously reduces the density of the alloy, thereby improving the hydrogen storage capacity of the alloy; on the other hand, the addition of Mg changes the stoichiometric ratio of the alloy, so that the hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy with understoichiometery is formed, and a vacancy is formed at the position occupied by the B side atom in the alloy and occupied by part of the A side atom, so that the alloy has a dislocation, twin crystal, stacking fault and other defect structures which are favorable for improving the hydrogen storage performance of the alloy. In addition, there is a large difference in atomic radius and electronegativity in the hydrogen storage high-entropy alloy, which results in the alloy having more lattice gaps, defects and strains, while weakening bond energy in the alloy, thereby promoting diffusion, dissociation and recombination of hydrogen atoms.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial technical effects:
