“…There are two common methods for modifying LiBH 4 . The first method is to thermodynamically destabilize LiBH 4 by adding metals, metal halides, oxides, amides or metal hydrides to form composite materials or alloys after dehydrogenation ( Zhang and Tian, 2011 ; Zhou et al, 2012 ; Liu et al, 2016 ; Zhou et al, 2017 ; Cheng et al, 2018 ; Xian et al, 2019 ; Ding et al, 2020 ; Sulaiman et al, 2021 ); the second method kinetically improve LiBH 4 by using catalysts ( Sulaiman et al, 2021 ; Zheng et al, 2021 ; Li et al, 2022a ; Wang et al, 2022a ; Li et al, 2022b ) or nanoconfinement, confining LiBH 4 in mesoporous scaffolds or mixing LiBH 4 with nanotubes or mesoporous gels etc. ( Zhou et al, 2019 ; Wang et al, 2020a ; Le et al, 2021 ; Xian et al, 2021 ; Ye et al, 2021 ; Wang et al, 2022b ).…”
