It is also known that those alloys can form a quasicrystalline state after thermal treatment and their structural and hydrogen sorption properties can be altered by doping with various elements. Therefore, in this paper, the results of the studies on the Ti45Zr38Ni17 system with yttrium substituted for titanium and zirconium are presented. We demonstrate that these alloys are able to absorb hydrogen with a concentration of up to 2.7 wt.% while retaining their amorphous structure and they transform into the unique glassy-quasicrystal phase upon annealing. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the in-situ hydrogenation of those new materials is an effortless procedure in which the decomposition of the alloy can be avoided. Moreover, we prove that, in that process, hydrogen does not bind to any specific component of the alloy, which would otherwise cause the formation of simple hydrides or nanoclusters.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma17204946","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,10]],"date-time":"2024-10-10T07:53:05Z","timestamp":1728546785000},"page":"4946","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Hydrogenation Properties of the Ti45Zr38\u2212xYxNi17 (5 \u2264 x \u2264 10) and the Ti45\u2212zYzZr38Ni17 (5 \u2264 z \u2264 15) Mechanically Alloyed Materials"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Joanna","family":"Czub","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Physics and Applied Computer Science, AGH University of Krakow, Mickiewicza 30, 30-059 Krakow, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Akito","family":"Takasaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics, Shibaura Institute of Technology, Toyosu, Kotoku, Tokyo 135-8548, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andreas","family":"Hoser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin, Hahn-Meitner-Platz 1, 14109 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6461-4074","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Manfred","family":"Reehuis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin, Hahn-Meitner-Platz 1, 14109 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4149-7944","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"\u0141ukasz","family":"Gondek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Physics and Applied Computer Science, AGH University of Krakow, Mickiewicza 30, 30-059 Krakow, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"10","DOI":"10.1007\/s40974-016-0005-z","article-title":"The prospects for hydrogen as an energy carrier: An overview of hydrogen energy and hydrogen energy systems","volume":"1","author":"Rosen","year":"2016","journal-title":"Energ.
