A BCC phase hydrogen storage alloy capable of storing approximately 4.0
wt. % hydrogen and delivering reversibly up to 3.0 wt. % hydrogen at
temperatures up to 110.degree. C. The hydrogen storage alloys also
possess excellent kinetics whereby up to 80% of the hydrogen storage
capacity of the hydrogen storage alloy may be reached in 30 seconds and
80% of the total hydrogen storage capacity may be desorbed from the
hydrogen storage alloy in 90 seconds. The hydrogen storage alloys also
have excellent stability which provides for long cycle life.
