In Part 1 of a series of two papers, the a/c lattice constant ratio of ZrCr2-based ternary alloys
are shown to be strongly correlated not only to the number of outside electrons of …

Abstract Zr 0.9− x Ti 0.4+ x V 1.7 (x= 0, 0.1) non-stoichiometric alloys are designed and
expected to show improved hydrogen storage capacities of Zr-based Laves phase alloys …

In this paper, we describe and discuss the synthesis, structural-microstructural and hydrogen
storage behaviour of three AB2 type storage materials namely (a) ZrFe2,(b) Zr (Fe0. 75V0 …

Abstract The pseudo-potential Density Functional Theory (DFT) method using the
Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) was applied to investigate hydrogen absorption …

The Zr (V1− xFex) 2 (x= 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.25) alloys were prepared by the arc-melt
method and annealed at 1273 K for 168 h in an argon atmosphere. Phase structure …

The non-stoichiometric C15 Laves phase alloys namely Zr 0.9 Ti 0.1 V x (x= 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2.1,
2.2, 2.3) are designed and expected to investigate the role of defect and microstructure on …

The crystal structure of the recently discovered ternaryordered intermetallic compound InPd
2 Cu was observed from a different perspective. Hydrogen insertion into the face-sharing …

Melt-spinning technique is applied to produce non-stoichiometric Zr 0.9 Ti x V 2 (x= 0, 0.2,
0.3, 0.4) ribbons to illustrate the effect of rapidly quenched solidification and non …

The microstructures and phase composition of the pseudobinary ZrTi0. 2V1. 8 alloy were
examined by scan electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Before …

Homogeneously annealed Zr0. 9Ti0. 1V2 samples are firstly exposed to contamination
gases of O2 and N2 for 30, 60 and 180s at the ambient temperature, respectively. Hydrogen …
