· La17Co33Ni50

La₁₇Co₃₃Ni₅₀ is a lanthanum-cobalt-nickel ternary intermetallic compound belonging to the rare-earth transition-metal alloy family. This material is primarily of research and developmental interest, investigated for hydrogen storage applications and as a potential hydrogen-absorbing electrode material in nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) battery systems. The lanthanum addition enhances the thermodynamic favorability of hydrogen absorption compared to binary Co-Ni systems, making it relevant for energy storage and fuel cell support technologies, though industrial adoption remains limited compared to optimized rare-earth-nickel alternatives.
