摘要
The evolution of phase compositions, phase change and microstructure in Sm2Fe17 alloys during hydrogenationdisproportion process were systematically studied with XRD, SEM, EDX methods. Research indicates that HD process of Sm2Fe17 alloys is as follows: Sm2Fe17 alloy absorbs hydrogen first in the atmosphere of hydrogenation with a pressure of 0.1 MPa. Disproportionation begins at T ≥ 500 ℃, then the alloys tuna into lots of SmHx and α-Fe phases which are partly in microcrystal or amorphous structures. Along with the increase of temperature, the microcrystal and amorphous structures transformed into crystal structure and this transformation thoroughly completed at 750 ℃. The size of obtained crystal grain is about 20 - 100 nm. Based on the experimental data, a microstructural transformation model of Sm2Fe17 alloys during hydrogenation-disproportion process was made.
