Abstract

A magnetization treatment was proposed firstly to improve the electrochemical properties of hydrogen storage electrode alloy in this paper. The results indicate that through the magnetization treatment, the electrochemical properties of hydrogen storage permanent magnet electrode alloy La0.9Sm0.1Ni5.0-yCoy(y=2.0, 2.5, 3.0), including electrochemical capacity, cycle life and the high-rate dischargeability, can be improved to some extent. Furthermore, the effect of magnetization treatment on its electrochemical properties is related to the content of Co. The more the cobalt content is, the higher the magnetization effect is.
