LaFe5H12
metal· JVASP-85226· LaFe5H12
LaFe5H12 is a metal hydride compound belonging to the rare-earth iron hydride family, formed by the absorption of hydrogen into a lanthanum-iron intermetallic base. This material is primarily of research and specialized industrial interest, known for its hydrogen storage capacity and thermomagnetic properties that enable applications in advanced energy conversion and thermal management systems. Engineers consider LaFe5H12 for next-generation hydrogen storage solutions and magnetocaloric cooling devices where its reversible hydrogen absorption and release characteristics offer advantages over conventional alternatives.
