Abstract
Surface poisoning typically leads to the severe capacity degradation and poses a significant challenge to the durability of hydrogen storage materials. In this study, we report a novel approach to enhance the air-poisoning resistance of vanadium-based alloys by introducing of the air-tolerant hydride. Through the addition of 1 at% Si, a small amount of Ti5Si3 is induced in V75Ti11Cr13Fe1, which turns into Ti5Si3H0.9 during the hydrogen sorption cycles. Ti5Si3H0.9 shows high resistance against air, which could serve as the hydrogen-entry window for the bulk. As a result, the (V75Ti11Cr13Fe1)99Si1 alloy maintains approximately 85 % of the hydrogen storage capacity after 10 cycles in H2 + 250 ppm air, in contrast to the near-complete loss of hydrogen sorption activity in Si-free alloy under the same condition.
