“…Especially, some of the so-called complex transition metal hydrides (CTMHs) such as the A 2 TH 6 hydrates, where A = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Eu, Sm; T = Fe, Ru, Os, which have the highest hydrogen density among the known condensed materials, are stable even at high temperature. Due to their high decomposition temperature T d , which is generally greater than 550 K, the CTMHs have been largely ignored for ambient temperature applications such as hydrogen solid-state storage in fuel cell vehicles [31]. However, the high stabilities and high hydrogen density of these hydrides make them potentially attractive for high-temperature applications, such as the thermochemical storage of heat for solar thermal plants or excess industrial heat for which hydrogen discharge temperature exceeding 700 K are desired [23,31,32].…”
