Electrochemical properties of AB5 type hydrogen storage alloy as anode electrocatalyst of PEMFC

1　INTRODUCTIONIn recent years, the application of the roomtemperature type ( < 100 ℃) polymer electrolytemembrane fuel cells(PEMFCs) as a primary powersource in electric vehicles and portable equipmentsetc has received increasing attention[1 4]. Usuallyin a PEMFC system, platinum is chosen as the e lectrode electrocatalyst, however, it results in ahigh cost PEMFC system for commercialization be cause Pt is a high cost, source limit metal. So,looking fo…     

一种计算氢扩散系数的新方法

利用电化学氢渗透曲线来计算室温附近氢在金属中的扩散系数是一种广为应用的方法。从理论上讲,在氢渗透曲线上的任何一点上都可以计算出氢在金属晶格中的扩散系数。但是从实际获得的氢渗透曲线各点算得的氢扩散系数并不一致。这是因为在金属中,一般都不可避免地存在一些氢的陷阱,如位错、晶界、杂质原子等,它们会不同程度地阻碍氢在金属晶格中的扩散过程。而理论推导本身并没有考虑到氢陷阱存在的影响,因此实际得

碳钢在流动3%氯化钠溶液中的腐蚀机理的探讨

本文利用自行设计的模拟流动状态的装置,研究了碳钢在流动3%NaCl溶液中的腐蚀规律及施加阴极电流后对腐蚀的影响。结果表明:随着相对流速的增大,碳钢的腐蚀随之加剧,并发现存在一个临界相对流速值。当相对流速小于此值时,腐蚀主要受电化学因素影响。而相对流速大于此值时,流体力学因素开始明显起主导作用,并与电化学因素间的协同效应增强,导致腐蚀速度急剧上升。施加阴极电流后,不仅抑制了电化学因素引起的腐蚀,而且大幅度地削弱了电化学因素与流体力学因素间的协同效应,从而使腐蚀速度大大降低。     

热处理对La0．7Mg0．3Ni2．8Co0．5贮氢合金电化学性能的影响

La0．7Mg0．3Ni2．8Co0．5贮氢电极合金经过适当热处理后(1123K)，最大放电容量、循环稳定性、高倍率放电性能(HRD)、交换电流密度(I0)以及极限电流密度(IL)都有明显改善，铸态合金电极的最大放电容量为392mAh／g，放电电流密度，Id=2000mA／g时，HRD2000=74．0％，I0=266．7mA／g，IL=3425．5mA／g；经1123K保温8h退火的合金电极的最大放电容量提高到414mAh／g，HRD2000=76．2％，I0=407．9mA／g，IL=3753．6mA／g。X射线衍射(XRD)分析表明，衍射峰宽度随着退火温度的升高而变窄，其原因是合金经退火处理相结构的变化和成分的均匀化。     

On the electrochemical nature of hot-corrosion attack in Ni-Cr alloys

Hot-corrosion attack on gas-turbine components has been a problem of practical importance for over two decades. The nature and the extent of corrosion are influenced by the type of contaminants, the alloy constituents, and temperature. The hot-corrosion process is quite complex. There is controversy regarding the role of alloying elements, and whether the process is chemical or electrochemical in nature. In this investigation, an attempt has been made to investigate the role of Al and Ti in influencing the hot-corrosion attack of Ni-20 wt. % Cr alloys in molten Na₂SO₄-NaCl mixtures. It was found that Ni-Cr-Al alloys undergo a localized, heavy-blister attack under certain experimental conditions which is electrochemical in nature. An electrochemical model has been proposed which can satisfatorily explain the nature and kinetics of the localized blister corrosion.     

Effects of pH value of reaction solution on structure and electrochemical performance of calcium-containing active material of secondary zinc electrodes

The calcium-containing active material of secondary alkaline zinc electrodes was prepared by a chemical coprecipitation method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and X-ray diffractometry(XRD).Their electrochemical performance was tested by the Galvanstatic charge-discharge method. The experimental results show that the sample synthesized at pH: 11. 15 has a typical calcium zincate crystal. The zinc electrode using this sample as active material shows higher discharge capacity, more negative discharge plateau potential and longer cycle lifetime.

Technique of pulse electrochemical finishing in molds and dies

Surface finishing is one of the most important processes in mould and die making. This process is necessary not only for smoothing the surface of die or mould, but also for removing the surface layer, which has been damaged by the preceding machining process and finally improve the performances and lifetime of moulds to a large extent. It has been reported that between 30% and 40% of the total time required to manufacture a die or mold is spent on finishing operations, most of which are performed by skilled workers employing traditional techniques. At present, key problems in mould and die finishing technology can improve the finishing efficiency, consistency and quality at reduced costs. A new and high efficiency unconventional finishing technology, pulse electrochemical finishing was introduced. Experiments were done in neutral nitrate electrolytes. The influence of electrolyte composition, intereletrode gap, finishing time, flow quality, current density, compositions of steel materials and pulse parameters on the resulting surface finishing was investigated. Results indicate that pulse parameters have important influence on operations finishing and the proper selection of pulse parameters can lead to both good smoothing efficiency and surface quality at low costs.
