Abstract
We have studied reactions of the Y2Fe alloy with hydrogen at 100°C and lower temperatures and with ammonia at temperatures from 100 to 500°C. We have determined the composition of the reaction products and identified conditions for obtaining the YFe2H3.6 hydride and those of its decomposition in ammonia, resulting in the formation of yttrium and iron nitrides.
