Embodiment

[0059] According to the compositions shown in Table 1, the metal raw materials were weighed and mixed, and the mixture was melted in a high-frequency melting furnace to obtain billets of Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-3. These ingots were heated under an argon atmosphere at a temperature of 1000°C for 10 hours to form the crystal structure in the ingots as AB 5 Type and AB 2 type of superlattice structure. Then, a test piece of a predetermined size was produced from the blank, and the true density of the test piece was measured. Table 1 shows the results and the concentration of Al in the alloy. In addition, each hydrogen storage alloy of the example and the comparative example contains two or more kinds selected from La, Ca, and Y as Ln, and Table 1 also shows the mass ratio of these elements in Ln.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to hydrogen storage alloys, and more particularly, to hydrogen storage alloys suitable for alkaline storage batteries. Background technique [0002] Alkaline storage batteries using hydrogen storage alloys as negative electrodes are in great demand as consumer batteries because they have high capacity and are cleaner than those using lead and cadmium. [0003] This alkaline battery usually uses LaNi 5 Waiting for AB 5 type (CaCu 5 type) is a hydrogen storage alloy, and its discharge capacitance exceeds 80% of the theoretical capacitance, but there is a limitation in realizing higher capacitance. [0004] Therefore, in order to achieve high capacitance, an alkaline storage battery using a rare earth-Mg-Ni hydrogen storage alloy in which AB is substituted with Mg elements has been developed. 5 The type is obtained by hydrogen occlusion of a part of the rare earth elements in the alloy. For example, Patent Document 1 dis...
