Mechanical alloying of MgTi and study the effect of adding ( = 0.2 wt%) transition metal like Sc, Zr, or Nb on their phase transitions, activation energy, and hydrogen storage properties.

Till now Mg-based alloys have attracted much attention due to the high storage capacity of hydrogen. An effort was made to evaluate the apparent activation energy and electrochemical behavior of transition metals such as scandium (Sc), zirconium (Zr), and niobium (Nb) alloyed with Mg-Ti. MgTi, MgTiSc, MgTiZr, and MgTiNb alloy powders were synthesized using high-energy ball milling.
