Hydrogen storage: beyond conventional methods

Hydrogen storage properties of the mechanically milled MgH2–V nanocomposite

Mechanical alloying and hydrogen absorption properties of the Mg–Ni system

A brief survey is given of the various classes of metal alloys and compounds that are suitable for hydrogen-storage and energy-conversion applications. Comparisons are made of relevant properties including hydrogen absorption and desorption pressures, total and reversible hydrogen-storage capacity, reaction-rate kinetics, initial activation requirements, susceptibility to contamination, and durability during long-term thermal cycling. Selected applications are hydrogen storage as a fuel, gas separation and purification, thermal switches, and sorption cryocoolers.

Metallic Hydrides I: Hydrogen Storage and Other Gas- Phase Applications

The correlation between composition and electrochemical properties of metal hydride electrodes

A promising alternative for hydrogen storage is storage as a metal hydride. The properties and applications of those systems which have proven or potential utility as hydrogen storage compounds are summarized. Specific systems discussed are magnesium alloy hydrides, iron-titanium alloys, titanium-chromium alloys, and rare earth alloys. (LK)
