CeNi5 is an intermetallic compound composed of cerium and nickel, belonging to the rare-earth metal family of materials. This compound is primarily studied for hydrogen storage applications due to its ability to absorb and reversibly store hydrogen, making it relevant for energy storage and fuel cell technologies where compact storage solutions are critical. CeNi5 represents an important research material in the hydrogen economy, offering advantages over some alternatives in terms of storage capacity and kinetic properties, though it remains largely in the development phase for commercial deployment.
