We developed a method to determine the activation energy for hydride decomposition using a Sieverts-type apparatus and the Kissinger equation, not using thermal analysis methods. The quantity of hydrogen released from the sample and the temperature of the reactor were first measured as a function of time at different heating rates (Φ) in a Sieverts-type apparatus. The dehydriding rates were calculated according to time and the temperature Tm (at which the dehydriding rate was the highest). Φ and Tm were then applied to the Kissinger equation. The dehydriding rate of Mg-5Ni samples obeyed a first-order law, and the Kissinger equation could thus be used to determine the activation energy. On a heating rate of 3 K/min, the decomposition rate of hydride was the highest at 590.0 K. From a plot of ln (Φ/Tm2) versus 1/Tm, the obtained activation energy for hydride decomposition was 174 kJ/mole.
