Abstract
The intermetallic compound Mg,Ni was mechanically ground under a hydro gen atmosphere. Its hydrogen content reaches 1.6 wt.% (Mg2NiH1.8) with out changing the crystal structure of the matrix Mg2Ni phase, and the dehydriding reaction starts at around 440 K. Its properties are most l ikely to originate from the formation of a nano-scale composite materi al which is composed of the crystalline matrix phase and the disordere d interface phase.
