Gallium-aluminum alloy catalytic hydrolysis hydrogen production

Time: 2019-09-29

The research on the preparation of hydrogen from gallium-aluminum alloy was first discovered in the United States, and it belongs to a brand-new energy storage technology, which has a very broad application prospect. However, there are few studies on this aspect in China, and the research on the theory and gallium-aluminum alloy process is not very mature. The melting point of metal gallium is relatively low, only 29.78 ° C. The friction caused by processing in actual operation will lead to the conversion of metal gallium from solid state to liquid state, and when metal gallium is infiltrated into metal aluminum along the grain boundary, the existence of metal gallium will actively effect the aluminium matrix, and a certain hydrolysis reaction occurs when it is in contact with water at normal temperature, which has a serious interference effect on the preparation and analysis of the sample, which is an important reason for limiting the systematic research.

The solid metal gallium in the gallium aluminum alloy can provide a sufficient amount of gallium ions as the hydrolysis reaction continuously. When the content of the solid solution metal gallium is relatively small, if the segregated metal gallium is provided to provide the hydrolysis reaction to start in the polarized environment, gallium aluminum alloy can also undergo hydrolysis reaction. After the infiltrated of gallium aluminum alloy which is annealed, the metal gallium in the core can be simultaneously present in a segregated state and a solid solution state, thereby achieving the purpose of activating the aluminum matrix.

As a new clean energy source, hydrogen energy is ubiquitous in people's lives. The use of hydrogen is playing an increasingly important role. The development and utilization technology of hydrogen energy is also constantly updated.
