The effect of pH value on microstructure of the nano precursors of La-Mg hydrogen storage alloy was studied by infrared radiation (IR), thermo-gravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), X-ray diffraction analyzer (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). IR results indicate that the chelating agent, citric acid, is not fully ionized, and carboxyl groups are not entirely used to complex metal ions in acidic solutions. The efficiency of complexing metal ions is enhanced in basic solutions. TG/DTA results show that the combustion may take place with low rate of the flame propagation that causes the longer combustion time when pH<1.5. On the contrary, the dry gel synthesized in basic solution combusts at low ignition temperature and combustion reaction is violent; it is easy to form fine particles. XRD and TEM results reveal that the precursor powders are mainly two-phase mixture of La 2 O 3 and MgO. The morphology of the particles is almost flake with the size of ~30 nm when pH is 8.0.展开更多

In this paper, the optimum process parameters were investigated. The pH of the reaction solution directly impacted the precursor structure, which further affected the obtained crystal forming. Many experiment methods of thermogravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy (Raman), and nitrogen adsorption were employed to characterize the ScSZ powder. The structure transition mechanism from cubic to rhombohedral was discussed. In addition, the electrical conductivity of the powders was also studied after dry-pressing and calcining. The results showed that the structure of ScSZ with complete crystal surface belonged to the cubic phase. The crystallite sizes of the powders prepared are about 60–80 nm, meet the conditions of (D90–D10)/2D50≤1, and ex-hibited the good flow properties. The electrical conductivity was more than 190 mS/cm in air measured at 850 oC.展开更多
