Synthesis of the (Sr,Ca)2AlH7 hydride

Synthesis, crystal structure and thermal decomposition of LiCa(AlH4)3

“…Recently, considerable efforts have further been carried out to develop alkaline-earth metal alanates as potentially promising hydrogen storage materials [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. For example, Mg(AlH 4 ) 2 (∼9.3 wt.% H) and Ca(AlH 4 ) 2 (∼7.9 wt.% H) can be synthesized not only by wet-chemical or mechano-chemical metathesis reaction of alkali metal alanates with alkaline-earth metal chlorides [11][12][13][14][15] but also by direct ball-milling of AlH 3 with MgH 2 or CaH 2 hydrides [16].…”

Effect of Si substitution for Al on the structural and hydrogenation properties of the Zintl phase alloy SrAl2

“…Intermetallic compounds used as hydrogen storage materials have been successfully developed in recent years due to several advantages, such as richness in resources, reliability in performance, operational safety and low cost [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. In fact, AB 5 type rare earth based hydrogen storage electrode alloy has been commercialized in the nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) secondary battery.…”

Thermal Dehydrogenation Characteristics of Li-Sr-Al-N-H Hydrogen Storage System

“…The hydride Sr 2 AlH 7 was prepared by the same method reported in our previous paper 29 . Rietveld analysis (see Fig.…”
