Abstract
A hydrogen storage alloy unit comprises a porous bodyhaving a large number of holes (spaces)allowing hydrogen atoms to pass through, and a hydrogen storage alloy covering a surface of the porous body, inclusive of surfaces of the holes thereof. The hydrogen storage alloy includes a hydrogen storage base formed of a hydrogen storage material, and a catalytic layer covering a surface of the hydrogen storage base. The porous bodyis formed of an assembly of hydrogen storage fibersformed by vapor-depositing the hydrogen storage alloy onto nanofibers.
