PHASE COMPOSITION OF CHOSEN Mg-BASED MATERIALS DURING HYDROGEN SORPTION
Čermák, Jiří; Král, Lubomír; Roupcová, Pavla
2019 - English
Phase transformation during hydrogen sorption was investigated in ten chosen magnesium-based hydrogen storage (HS) materials. Chemical composition of the materials consisted of Mg, as a principal hydrogen-binding element, additive X and amorphous carbon (CB), as an anti-sticking component. In order to assess the effect of X itself upon the structure, values of concentration of both X and CB were fixed to about 12 wt. %. The influence of X = Mg2Si, Mg2Ge, Mg17Al12, Mg5Ga2, NaCl, LiCl, NaF, LiF and two combinations Ni+Mg17Al12 and Ni+Mg2Si upon the changes in phase composition was tested. Phase content in HS materials was observed (i) after the intensive ball milling (BM), (ii) after the BM followed by hydrogen charging at 623 K and (iii) after the BM and one hydrogen charging/discharging cycle (C/D) at temperature 623 K. The study was carried out by SEM and XRD. It was found that, the C/D is approximately structurally reversible for X = Mg2Ge, Mg17Al12, NaF and LiF. However, additives X = Mg17Al12 and NaF decompose already during the BM. In alloys with combination of Ni with Mg17Al12, new phases NimAln are formed. Phase composition changed during C/D for X = Mg2Si Mg5Ga2 and Ni+Mg2Si due to equilibration of phases composition. Observed structure changes of HS materials with chloride ionic additives NaCl and LiCl are, most likely caused by the relatively strong affinity between Mg and Cl. Hydrogen storage capacity of all studied alloys was 6.0 +/- 0.3 wt. % H-2. Keywords: Hydrogen storage; Mg alloys; carbon black Fulltext is available at external website.

INFLUENCE OF MELTING TEMPERATURE AND TIME ON THE OXYGEN CONTENT IN TiAlNb ALLOYS
Barták, Tomáš; Zemčík, L.; Dlouhý, Antonín
2011 - English
The present study investigates a cost-effective melting of TiAlNb intermetallics in a stable yttrium oxide refractory. We identify mechanisms that mainly contribute to the oxygen pick-up during melting. Systematic microstructural and chemical analysis provided evidence that erosion and dissolution of crucible wall are key factors of the process. Experiments were performed using two Ti46Al7Nb alloys with a different initial content of oxygen. The alloys were re-melted in vacuum induction furnace inside U-shaped yttria crucibles. The experiments involved three different temperatures in combination with melting times spanning from 300 to 1800 s. The oxygen content of re-melted and solidified alloys was assessed by means of inert gas fusion technique. Results of the chemical analysis provided clear evidence that the stability of the refractory wall in contact with the molten alloy and its rate of dissolution depend mainly on melting temperature. These results are further supported by microstructural observations that confirmed ever growing content of ceramic phases in the solidified intermetallic with increasing temperature of the melt. The work also contributed to the improved experimental methodology, in particular to temperature measurements of reactive melts.

METALLURGY AND PROPERTIES OF ADVANCED NiAl-Mo EUTECTICS
Barták, Tomáš; Kuchařová, Květa; Záležák, Tomáš; Dlouhý, Antonín
2010 - English
A NiAl-Mo eutectic alloy was melt from 99,99% purity components and cast by the drop casting technique. The drop-cast ternary alloy (nominal composition of Ni-45Al-9Mo at. %), was re-melted and directionally solidified using a high temperature optical floating zone furnace. A resulting in-situ composite consists of Ni-45,2Al matrix and Mo-10Al-4Ni fibers, all in at. %. The volume fraction of 14% Mo-fibers stems from the eutectic composition. Backscatter diffraction shows that the NiAl-matrix and the Mo-fibers are both < 001 >-oriented with respect to the axis of the cylindrical rods. Preliminary creep experiments confirmed an immense improvement of high temperature strength due to the fine distribution of Mo-fibres. The amount of strengthening in terms of minimum creep rate can be as high as 7 orders of magnitude. Post-mortem transmission electron microscopy experiments provided evidence that creep in the temperature range of 800 - 900 degrees C results in an extensive formation of subgrain boundaries. The strengthening effect is very likely associated with the reactions between subgrain boundaries and fine Mo-fibres.
