Abstract

We report here the effect on hydrogen sorption behavior of replacing vanadium by ferrovanadium (FeV) in Ti-V-Cr Body Centred Cubic (BCC) solid solution alloys. The compositions studied were Ti1.56V0.36Cr1.08 and Ti1.26V0.63Cr1.11. Both of the alloys were synthesized by melting with 4 wt % of Zr7Ni10 in order to enhance the first hydrogenation (i.e., activation) kinetics. The ferrovanadium substitution leads to the same microstructure as the vanadium pristine alloys and no significant change in the lattice parameters was found. However, a longer incubation time was observed in the activation process for the FeV substituted alloy. Finally, the replacement of vanadium by ferrovanadium did not have a noticeable impact on the hydrogen capacities, heat of formation, and entropy.
