Abstract
The plasma evaporation-sputtering method was used to manufacture composite materials of the Mg-Zr system. The ion-implanted deuterium desorption temperature variations depending on the component concentrations were studied. It has been established that the introduction of a Zr impurity to magnesium leads to the significant decrease of the deuterium desorption temperature (∼400K) as compared to the release from Mg samples. A step-like form of the curve of the deuterium desorption temperature testifies to presence of two various structural conditions at composite Mg-Zr depending on the relation of components. The hydrogen desorption data obtained using Mg-Zr composites can be used for the further invrstigations into the hydrogen storage materials containing chemical elements with a low solubility in the alloy components.
