Resumen:
Hydrogen absorption and desorption properties of ball-milled Mg and Mg/graphite materials were analyzed by high-pressure differential scanning calorimetry. The influence on hydrogen sorption kinetics of different graphite distribution, oxygen poisoning and magnesium sintering was studied. The Mg/graphite mixture with graphite distributed in the bulk showed better kinetics than the material with graphite located on the surface and Mg without additive. The effect of sintering and oxygen poisoning was a progressive storage capacity loss, due to a kinetic limitation in the case of sintering, and due to irreversible magnesium oxidation in the case of poisoning. The mixtures with graphite exhibited more resistance towards oxygen contamination, particularly in the case where graphite was primarily located on the surface compared to the material with graphite well dispersed in the bulk.
