Chemical Hydrogen Storage of Carbon Material

Calcium amidotrihydroborate: a hydrogen storage material.

Nanoscale Magnesium as a Hydrogen Storage Material

A self-catalyzing hydrogen-storage material.

Conventional (e.g. MgH2) and complex hydrides (e.g. alanates, borohydrides, and amides) are the two primary classes of solid-state hydrogen-storage materials. Many of these “high-density” hydrides have the potential to store large amounts of hydrogen by weight (up to 18.5 wt% for LiBH4) and/or volume (up to 112 gL!1 for MgH2), values that are comparable to the hydrogen content of gasoline (15.8...

Clathrate hydrogen hydrate--a promising material for hydrogen storage.

Hydrogen is viewed as a promising clean fuel of the future. A low-cost hydrogen storage technology that provides a high storage capacity and fast kinetics is a critical factor in the development of a hydrogen economy for transportation. The technologies to store hydrogen can be classified into three types: compression, liquefaction, and storage in a solid material. 2] Compressing hydrogen requi...

Hydrogen storage in carbon nanotubes with Ni nanoparticles by electrochemical

In this paper, the electrochemical hydrogen storage in nanocomposite materials was studied. Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) electrode was prepared by mixing with special composite. The optimum ratio of MWCNTs was estimated 30-70% (w/w) in the composite material. MWCNTs were synthesized by Chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The nanocomposite was homogenized by microwave. Cyclic voltammetry ...
