SUMMARYBall milling technique was used for deposition of the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coating on the powder of TiFe intermetallic compound. Measurement of pressure-composition hydrogen absorption isotherms revealed that the polymer-coated TiFe intermetallic compound kept its hydrogen storage ability. The TiFe/PTFE material demonstrated resistance to surface poisoning even after a prolonged exposure to air and was not subjected to pulverization during multiple hydrogenation-dehydrogenation cycles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
