Boron doped graphene oxide (B-GO) is a highly effective adsorbent for ammonia due to the high density of strong Lewis acid sites arising from the boron. GO was doped by various amounts of boron described as xB-GO (x= 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0). B-GO was successful ...
The Pt-supported hollow structured Pt-HZrO2 with the shell thickness of 27 nm is successfully synthesized. The water retention ability of Pt-HZrO2 is significantly enhanced compared with that of SiO2@ZrO2 due to the hydrophilic hollow structured HZrO2 with ...
Atomic hydrogen on the surface of a metal with high hydrogen solubility is of particular interest for the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide. In a mixture of hydrogen and carbon dioxide, methane was markedly formed on the metal hydride ZrCoHx in the course of ...
The bcc alloy V40(TiCr)51Fe8Mn shows a high reversible hydrogen capacity of 2.22 mass% at room temperature and is therefore expected to be applied as a hydrogen storage material. During the first 10 hydrogenation/dehydrogenation cycles, the capacity decrea ...
In the framework of the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) Action MP1103 Nanostructured Materials for Solid-State Hydrogen Storage were synthesized, characterized and modeled. This Action dealt with the state of the art of energy storage ...
The present paper presents a thorough experimental investigation of mechanistic pathways of thermal decomposition of ammonia borane (AB) and its mixture with KBr. A comparative detection and temperature-dependent in situ monitoring of the decomposition pro ...
Y(BH4)3 is one of the candidates for solid-state hydrogen storage, which contains 9.06 wt% of hydrogen. In this study, the thermal properties of Y(BH4)3 synthesized via two different methods are extensively examined. One method relies on the solid-solid me ...
The decomposition pathway is crucial for the applicability of LiBH 4 as a hydrogen storage material. We discuss and compare the different decomposition pathways of LiBH 4 according to the thermodynamic parameters and show the experimental ways to realize t ...
This study aims at an investigation of the impurity gases emitted during the decomposition of borohydrides. For this we have set up a quantitative gas analysis based on a combination of FTIR spectroscopy and gravimetry. We show that the emission of various ...
This project involved the conversion of a British Waterways maintenance craft to a canal boat, powered by a combination of a solid-state hydrogen store, Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell, lead-acid battery pack and a high-efficiency, permanent magne ...
