Abstract
The hydriding kinetics of hydrogen storage materials in the two-phase regions have been studied. It is believed that the hydriding process i s best classified into three steps: dissolution of hydrogen into the a lloy or its hydride; diffusion of hydrogen atoms through the alloy or its hydride phase; and nucleation and growth of beta-hydride (hydride depositing from supersaturated alpha-solid solution). Kinetics equatio ns have been derived for the cases when one of the three steps is the rate-determining step. Copyright (C) 1996 International Association fo r Hydrogen Energy.
