Selective Borohydride Oxidation Reaction on Nickel Catalyst with Anion and Cation Exchange Ionomer for High-Performance Direct Borohydride Fuel Cells

Andreas Züttel, Thi Ha My Pham, Loris Giovanni Lombardo, Heena Yang, Mo Li, Youngdon Ko

Direct borohydride fuel cells (DBFCs) operate with liquid H2O2 and a high-energy-density NaBH4 solution. A facile, direct synthesis method using a non-noble nickel catalyst for the DBFC anode is shown. The complex anode reaction with an anion-exchange iono ...

Effect of Co-Substitution on Hydrogen Absorption and Desorption Reactions of YMgNi4-Based Alloys

Andreas Züttel, Loris Giovanni Lombardo, Wen Luo, Heena Yang

YMgNi4-based alloys exhibit reversible hydrogen absorption and desorption reactions at near room temperature. Here, we report that Co-substituted YMgNi4-based alloys exhibited higher hydrogen contents and lower hydrogen absorption and desorption reaction p ...

Direct CO2 Capture and Reduction to High-End Chemicals with Tetraalkylammonium Borohydrides

Andreas Züttel, Loris Giovanni Lombardo, Kun Zhao, Heena Yang, Youngdon Ko

We demonstrate the ability of tetraalkylammonium borohydrides to capture large amounts of CO2, even at low CO2 concentrations, and reduce it to formate under ambient conditions. These materials show CO2 absorption capacities up to 30 mmolCO2 g(-1) at room ...

Solvent- and Catalyst-Free Carbon Dioxide Capture and Reduction to Formate with Borohydride Ionic Liquid

Paul Joseph Dyson, Andreas Züttel, Loris Giovanni Lombardo, Kun Zhao, Heena Yang

The Cover Feature shows the application of a pyrrolidinium-based ionic liquid with a borohydride anion to simultaneously capture and reduce large amounts of CO2. The ionic liquid cation interacts with CO2, allowing the borohydride to fix and reduce it to t ...

Interfacial Effect between Aluminum-Based Complex Hydrides and Nickel-Containing Porous Carbon Sheets

Andreas Züttel, Emad Oveisi, Loris Giovanni Lombardo, Heena Yang, Mo Li, Youngdon Ko

Supported aluminum-based complex hydrides (alanates) were investigated in view of their interaction at the interface. Nickel-containing porous carbon sheets (Ni-PCSs) were combined with various alanates, resulting in a decrease of the decomposition tempera ...
