TL;DR: In this article, the performance of metal hydride based cooling system (MHCS) is evaluated by characterizing intermetallic hydrides to determine their suitability in MHCS, and the effect of compositional changes on the variation of these parameters due to the variation in pressure concentration isotherm properties (storage capacity, plateau slope, hysteresis effect, etc.) was studied.

TL;DR: A key to pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry literature and training of literature chemists are discussed in the Advances series as mentioned in this paper, with the focus on the training of chemistry chemists, which is a subject of great interest to the literature chemist.
Abstract: NUMBERS 16 and 17 in the Advances series have made their appearance. The titles are: "A Key to Pharmaceutical and Medicinal Chemistry Literature" and "Training of literature Chemists." The first is a collection of papers presented before the Divisions of Chemical Literature and Medicinal Chemistry; the second consists of papers given before a joint meeting of the Divisions of Chemical Education and Chemical Literature. Glancing at the titles of subjects covered to date in the Advances series, it becomes evident that a substantial literature is being built by literature chemists, largely through the divisions in the AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY. Number 4, "Searching the Chemical Literature," has been reprinted several times and frequently is referred to as the "bible" of literature chemists. Number 10, "Literature Resources for Chemical Process Industries," is in much demand. Nomenclature is a subject of direct importance to the literature chemist, and Number 8, entitled "Chemical Nomenclature," and ...

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the hydrogen absorption-desorption characteristics of multicomponent alloys such as MmNi5−xAl(Mn)y−zMz and MnNi5 −xMnyM2.
Abstract: In order to reduce the large hysteresis effect in MmNi hydrides (Mm  misch metal) we studied the hydrogen absorption-desorption characteristics of multicomponent alloys such as MmNi5−xAl(Mn)y−zMz and MmNi5−xAl(Mn)yM2 (M = Co, Cr, Cu, Nb, Ti, V, Zr; x = 0.3 − 0.5; y = 0.3 − 0.5; z = 0.05 − 0.1). The substitution or addition of the element M eliminates the large hysteresis effect that occurs during an absorption-desorption cycle. The hysteresis factor (equal to In( P a P d )) for MmNi4.7Al0.3M0.1 hydrides decreased for additives M in the following order: Zr > Co > Cr > Ti,V > Cu. Investigations of the effects of cycling showed that spalling occurred more rapidly for MmNi4.5Mn0.5 than for MmNi4.5Mn0.5Zr0.005 and MmNi4.5Mn0.5Zr0.1.

TL;DR: The hydrogen absorption and desorption characteristics of mischmetal (Mm)-nickel-aluminum alloys were investigated in this paper, where the same hexagonal structure as LaNi5 and MmNi5 was found to react readily with hydrogen to form the hydrides MnNi4.5Al0.75 Al0.5A10.
Abstract: The hydrogen absorption and desorption characteristics of mischmetal (Mm)-nickel-aluminum alloys were investigated. MmNi5−xAlx (x = 0.25 −0.5) have been found to have the same hexagonal structure as LaNi5 and MmNi5, and they reacted readily with hydrogen to form the hydrides MmNi4.75 Al0.25H5.4, MmNi4.65Al0.35H 5.3H5.3 and MmNi4.5Al0.5H4.9 (hydrogen content: 1.3,1.2 and 1.2 wt.%, respectively) under 60 atm hydrogen pressure at room temperature. The dissociation pressures of these hydrides were dependent on the aluminum content (aluminum partially substitutes for nickel) and the value of log Pbecame lower than the value for MmNi5 hydride as x increased. The enthalpy change on hydride formation as determined from the dissociation isotherms for the MmNi4.5Al0.5-H system was − 5.5 kcal (mol H2)−1; this value was smaller than those for LaNi5 and MmNi5. The dissociation pressure at 30 °C was 3 atm and was nearly the same as that of LaNi5. The desorption rate of hydrogen for MmNi4.5Al0.5 was larger than those for LaNi5 and MmNi5) and a value of 2.1 – 4.3 kcal mol−1 was obtained for the apparent activation energy of hydrogen desorption. For MmNi4.5Al0.5 the hydrogen absorption-desorption cycle was repeated 30 times, but no variation in the hydrogen absorption-desorption capacity was observed. The hydride of MmNi4.5A10.5 proved to be suitable for use as a stationary hydrogen storage material.
