The crystal structures and hydrogenation–dehydrogenation characteristics of Er(Ni1−xMnx)2compounds are investigated in this work. It is found that either annealing or hydrogenation leads to ordering transition of ErNi2from MgCu2-type structure to TmNi2-type superstructure. As Mn content is withinx= 0.2–0.8 and 0.9–1, Er(Ni1−xMnx)2compounds have C15 and C14 structures, respectively. The hydrogen absorption content of the C15-type Er(Ni1−xMnx)2increases with raising Mn contentx, however, the absorption plateau pressure decreases gradually and hydrogen desorption becomes difficult. ErMn2can absorb hydrogen to form irreversible ErMn2H3.4and reversible ErMn2H4.8at 3.5 × 10−5and 1.5 × 10−1MPa, respectively. Nevertheless, the C14-type Er(Ni0.1Mn0.9)2compound is subjected to decomposition into ErMn2Hzand ErNi2Hyduring hydrogen absorption.
