Hydrogen solubility in rare earth based hydrogen storage alloys
The rare earth based AB 5 type alloys have been extensively studied [2], [3], [4].Metal substitution is straightforward to vary the hydrogen storage properties. So far the effect of substitution of A and B-sites by metal elements on the hydrogen storage properties has been experimentally well determined.
Hence, we propose that HEAs can be used as a new class of alloy for hydrogen storage that does not involve any rare-earth metals. Additional Information How to cite this article : Sahlberg, M. et al .
