摘要
This paper presents a new method of surface modification on LaNi5 hydr ogen storage alloy. The hydrogen alloy was treated in the acid CuSO4 solution co ntaining HF. The effect of HF on surface state of alloy was studied and the elec trochemical properties of modified alloy were investigated. Electrochemical impe dance spectra (EIS) was also applied to analyze the resistance property of alloy electrode after modification. SEM and XRD results showed that HF had corrosive effect on hydrogen alloy, which help copper grain to precipitate on alloy surfac e. EIS analysis showed that modified alloy had lower contact resistance and elec trochemical polarization, which resulted in a higher conductivity and electroche mical activation. Electrochemical testing showed modified alloy had better activ ation behavior and excellent large current discharge ability. Thus it could well satisfy the requirement of the application as power sources on electric vehicle s.
