Temperature Dependence of the Elastic Modulus of (Ni0.6Nb0.4)1−xZrx Membranes: Effects of Thermal Treatments and Hydrogenation

Amorphous (Ni0.6Nb0.4)1−xZrx membranes were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry, differential thermal analysis and tensile modulus measurements. Crystallization occurs only above 673 K, and even after hydrogenation the membranes retain their mainly amorphous nature. However,...
