A partial substitution of Ni by Mn was implemented in order to improve the hydriding and dehydriding kinetics of the Mg2Ni-type alloys.

The nanocrystalline and amorphous MgzNi-type Mg2Nil-xMnx （x=0, 0. 1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4） alloys were synthesized by the melt-spinning technique. The structures of the as-cast and spun alloys were studied by X-ray diffractometry （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and high resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM）. The hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of the alloys were measured with an automatically controlled Sieverts apparatus. The results show that the as-spun Mn-free alloy holds a typical nanocrystalline structure, whereas the as-spun alloys containing Mn display a nanocrystalline and amorphous structure, confirming that the substitution of Mn for Ni intensifies the glass forming ability of the Mg2Ni-type alloy. The hydrogen absorption and desorption capacities and kinetics of the alloys increase with increasing the spinning rate, for which the nanocrystalline and amorphous structure produced by the melt spinning is mainly responsible. The substitution of Mn for Ni evidently improves the hydrogen desorption performance. The hydrogen desorption capacities of the as-cast and spun alloys rise with the increase in the percentage of Mn substitution.展开更多

The influence of pore-enlargement treatment on the porous structure and tribological properties of the film was investigated, and ultrasonic impregnation technology was applied on it to form self-lubricating surface. The structure of the self-lubricating film and its tribological properties were investigated in detail. It can be concluded that the optimum time of pore-enlargement treatment is 20 min. The diameter of the pores and the surface porosity of the film are about 70 nm and 30%, respectively, while the film maintains the property of its high hardness. Under the same friction condition, the frictional coefficient of the self-lubricating film is 0. 18, much lower than that of the anodic aluminum oxide template, which is 0.52. In comparison with the lubricating surface of non-porous dense anodic aluminum oxide template, the lubricating surface fabricated by the ultrasonic impregnation method on the porous anodic aluminum oxide template keeps longer period with low friction coefficient. SEM examination shows that some C60 particles have been embedded in ultrasonic impregnation technology. the nanoholes of the anodic aluminum oxide template by the展开更多
