The main technological challenge for the wider application of hydrogen as an energy carrier is the development of appropriate solutions for its storage. The use of metal hydrides, which store hydrogen in solid form, is a more effective and safe alternative to H2 under high pressure or liquefied. MgH2 has the highest gravimetric capacity among all metal hydrides, of 7.6%. Currently, two ma…
The aim of the present project is to investigate the friction stir weldability of novel light and recyclable high-performance materials based on the ZK60 magnesium alloy (Mg-6%Zn-1%Zr) modified with different mischmetal (RE) contents: 0.5, 1.5 e 2.5 wt%. For the production of such materials still unexplored in Brazil, it is proposed the use of a thixocasting procedure under mechanical sti…
