Abstract

New materials, especially AB2 substituted compounds are able to form reversible hydrides and are good candidates to substitute the cadmium in rechargeable nickel–cadmium batteries. These systems have been the subject of several theoretical and experimental studies, particularly concerning the reaction between hydrogen and the Laves phases(C14) containing zirconium. We have shown previously that the A2B2 site size is the basic criterion which allows manipulation of the characteristic properties (kinetic and thermodynamic) of intermetallic compound hydrides Zr(MxCr1-x)2 with M=Fe, Ni. In order to generalise the validity of our criterion, we have extended our study to other Laves phases (C14) in the literature. The results are found to be in good agreement.
