Abstract The effects of surface coating with Ni-Al nano-films to the hydrogenation properties of the La2Mg17 alloy are studied in the paper. The reversible hydrogen storage capacities, thermodynamics and kinetics process are all improved for the coating samples, and the comprehensive performances reach the best when the sputtering time is 5min with the film thickness 71.7 nm. The dehydrogenation temperature of the coating sample can be reduced to about 560K from above 720K comparing to the body alloy. The XPS analysis shows that the Ni-Al film coating layer can act as the catalyst in the dehydrogenation process.
