LiBH4 contains 18.5 wt% hydrogen and undergoes a structural phase transition (orthorhombic → hexagonal) at 381 K which is associated with a large increase in hydrogen and lithium solid-state mobility. We investigated the hydrogen dynamics in the low temper ...
Mg(BH4)2 exhibits a high hydrogen content of 14.9 wt% and thermodynamic stability in the overall decomposition reaction that corresponds to hydrogen desorption at around room temperature. However, the potential applications in hydrogen storage are restrict ...
Templating approaches based on the self-assembly of block-copolymers represent a powerful tool for the preparation of ordered carbon-containing nanomaterials. Combining such strategies with the use of well-defined amphiphilic precursors with sp2-carbon-ric ...
Excitation of the weak electron donor decamethylosmocene on illumination with white light produces an excited-state species capable of reducing organically solubilized protons under biphasic conditions. Insight into the mechanism and kinetics of light-driv ...
The efficient storage of hydrogen is one of three major hurdles towards a potential hydrogen economy. This report begins with conventional storage methods for hydrogen and broadly covers new technology, ranging from physical media involving solid adsorbent ...
Scanning electrochemical microscopy potentiometric determination of local hydrogen concentration and its flux next to the liquid|liquid interface was demonstrated. This method is based on the shift of open circuit potential of Pt-based reversible hydrogen ...
Complex hydrides such as LiBH4 and LiNH2 exceed the gravimetric hydrogen density of transition metal hydrides by one order of magnitude. However, hydrogen in complex hydrides is covalently bound and arranged in subunits e.g. [NH2]- and [BH4] - with a fixed ...
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 ...
Lithiumborohydride (LiBH4) contains 18.5 wt % hydrogen and exhibits a structural phase transition (orthorhombic→ hexagonal) at 381 K, which is associated with a large increase in hydrogen and lithium mobility in the solid. Confining metal hydrides in a nan ...
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 ...
