The formation of quasicrystals and their hydrides in Ti-Zr-Ni system
In the present work, an essentially new approach to production of quasicrystals in Ti-Zr-Ni system is described. It consists in co-compaction and dehydrogenation-sintering of mixture of powders of Ni with two and more hydrides of transition metals of IV group (Ti, Zr). The interaction of some of received quasicrystals with hydrogen in combustion mode is studied, the hydrides of these quasicrystals are synthesized and investigated. (C) 2010 Professor T.
