The electrode alloys of La0.7Mg0.3Co0.45Ni255-xFex (x=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4) were prepared by casting and rapid quenching. The influence of the quenching on cyclic stability as well as structure of the alloys was investigated in detail. The results of electrochemical measurement indicated that rapid quenching significantly improved cyclic stability. When the quenching rate rose from 0 (As-cast was defined as a quenching rate of 0 m/s) to 30 m/s, the cyclic life of Fe-free alloy (x=-0) increased from 81 to 105 cycles, and for alloy containing Fe(x=0.4), it grew from 106 to 166 cycles at a current density of 600 mA/g. The results obtained by XRD, TEM and SEM revealed that the as-cast and quenched alloys had multiphase structures, including two major phases (La, Mg)Ni3 and LaNi5 as well as an imptLrity phase LaNi2. Rapid quenching helped the formation of an amorphous-like structure in Fe containing alloys.展开更多

The effects of rapid quenching on the microstructure and cycle stability of the alloy were investigated. The obtained results show that the La2Mg(Ni0.85Co0.15)9M0.1 (M=B, Cr) alloy electrodes are composed of (La, Mg)Ni3 phase, LaNi5 phase and a small amount of the LaNi2 phase. A trace of the Ni2B phase exists in the as-cast MB alloy, and the Ni2B phase in the alloy nearly disappears after rapid quenching. Rapid quenching technology can slightly improve the cycling life of the alloy. When the quenching rate increases from 0 m·s-1 (As-cast is defined as quenching rate of 0 m·s-1) to 30 m·s-1, the cycle lives of the MB, MCr alloys enhance from 86 and 87 cycles to 106 and 119 cycles, respectively. On the other hand, the average capacity decay rates of the MB, MCr alloys decrease from 1.7172 and 1.7178 mAh·g-1·cycle-1 to 1.5751 and 1.3060 mAh·g-1·cycle-1 after 86 charge-discharges cycling, respectively.展开更多

The results show that the majority of dispersions present in the asextruded alloy are metastable Al12(Fe, Cr, V)3Si, which has excellent thermaldynamical stability and coarsening resistance; the coarsening ratecontrolling process of the Al12(Fe, Cr, V)3Si phase is considered to be diffusion of Fe atom along grain boundaries instead of bulk diffusion of Fe atom.展开更多

The growth velocities of the mi- crostructures in the laser molten pool were accurately measured. The planar interface structure caused by the high velocity absolute stability was achieved at a growth velocity of 210 mm/s. An implicit expression of the critical solidification velocity for the cellular-planar transition was carried out by nonlinear stability analyses of the planar interface. The results showed a better agreement with the measured critical velocity than that predicted by M-S theory. Cell-free structures were observed throughout the whole molten pool at a scanning velocity of 652 mm/s and the calculated minimum temperature gradient in this molten pool was very close to the critical temperature gradient for high gradient absolute stability (HGAS) of the η phase. This indicates that HGAS was successfully achieved in the present experiments.展开更多

Aiming to improve the cycle stabilities of the alloys, Ni in the alloy was partly substituted by Fe, Cu and Al. The effects of the substitution of Fe, Cu and Al for Ni and the rapid quenching on the microstructures and electrochemical properties of the alloys were investigated in detail. The results obtained by XRD, SEM and TEM indicate that the element substitution has no influence on the phase compositions of the alloys, but it changes the phase abundances of the alloys. Particularly, the substitution of Al and Cu obviously increases the amount of the LaNi2 phase. The substitution of Al and Fe leads to a great refinement of the as-quenched alloy′s grains. The substitution of Al strongly restrains the formation of the amorphous in the as-quenched alloy, but the substitution of Fe and Cu is quite helpful for the formation of an amorphous phase. The effects of the substitution of Fe, Cu and Al on the cycle stabilities of the as-cast and quenched alloys are different. The positive impact of the substitution elements on the cycle stabilities of the as-cast alloys is ranked in proper order Al>Fe>Cu, and for as-quenched alloys, the order is Fe>Al>Cu. Rapid quenching engenders an unconscious influence on the phase composition, but it markedly enhances the cycle stabilities of the alloys.展开更多
