Improvement in the hydrogen storage performance of the as-milled Sm–Mg alloys using MoS₂ nano-particle catalysts

Abstract

MoS2 nanoparticles embedded in the alloys markedly enhance the dehydrogenation performance, such as lowering dehydrogenation temperature and enhancing dehydrogenation rate.

Hydrogen storage behavior of nanocrystalline and amorphous Mg–Ni–Cu–La alloys

“…[4][5][6] How to prepare a practically usable hydrogen storage system is a key technical issue for the application of hydrogen fuel in a vehicle. [7][8][9][10] Among all hydrogen storage materials, metal hydride hydrogen storage systems are thought to be preferential choices for meeting the requirements of mobile facilities. 11 The application goal has been achieved by some reported hydrogen storage materials.…”

A catalytic mechanism investigation of TiF3 on hydriding/dehydriding properties of Mg85Cu5Ni10 alloy

“…21,22 Among many metal hydride hydrogen storage materials, magnesium has a high reversible hydrogen storage capacity (7.6 wt%) which attracts many scholars' interest. [23][24][25][26] Besides, magnesium has a low price, abundant reserves, excellent heat resistance, good recyclability, and can form solid solution with other elements in equilibrium state. Unfortunately, MgH 2 has high thermal stability and needs high temperature to release hydrogen, and the rate of hydrogenation/ dehydrogenation evolution is relatively slow, which limits its wide application.…”

Absorption and desorption of hydrogen in Ti1.02Cr1.1Mn0.3Fe0.6RE0.03: experiments, characterization and analytical interpretation using statistical physics treatment

“…In search for solutions of alternative energies, hydrogen as a carrier of energy has become an important choice to resolve the issue of progressive exhausting fossil fuels and to safeguard the planet's environment, thanks to the renewability and purity of this gas. [1][2][3][4] Hydrogen storage has presented a basic problem for energy storage exploitation. 5 In general, hydrogen is stored as a cryogenic liquid, pressurized gas and chemically or physically related to the suitable solid-state matter.…”
