摘 要:Phase structure and electrochemical characteristics of Co-free La0.7Ce0.3(Ni3.65Cu0.75Mn0.35Al0.15(Fe0.43B0.57)0.10)x (0.90≤x≤1.10) al-loys were investigated. When x was 0.90, the alloy was composed of LaNi5, La3Ni13B2 and Ce2Ni7 phases. The Ce2Ni7 phase disappeared, and the abundant of La3Ni13B2 phase decreased when x increased to 0.95. When x was 1.00 or higher the alloys consisted of LaNi5 phase. The lat-tice parameter a and the cell volume V of the LaNi5 phase decreased, and the c/a ratio of the LaNi5 phase increased with x value increasing. Maximum discharge capacity of the alloy electrodes first increased and then decreased with x value increasing from 0.90 to 1.10, and the highest value was obtained when x was 1.00. High-rate dischargeability at the discharge current density of 1200 mA/g increased from 50.7% (x= 0.90) to 64.1% (x=1.10). Both the charge-transfer reaction at the electrode/electrolyte interface and the hydrogen diffusion in the alloy were responsible for the high-rate dischargeability. Cycling capacity retention rate at 100th cycle (S100) gradually increased from 77.3% (x= 0.90) to 84.6% (x=1.10), which resulted from the increase in Ni content and the c/a ratio of the LaNi5 phase with x value increasing.
