Abstract
The Mg(NH2)2-2LiH system with KOH additive is a promising high-capacity hydrogen storage material in terms of low dehydrogenation temperatures, good reversibility, and excellent cycling stability. Various mechanisms have been reported to elucidate the reasons for the K-containing additive improving the hydrogen storage performance. Herein, the dehydrogenation performance of Mg(NH2)2-2LiH-0.07KOH is found to be strongly associated with hydrogen pressures. The Li2K(NH2)3 and KH produced from the reaction between KOH, LiH, and Mg(NH2)2 in the ball milling process are converted into Li3K(NH2)4, MgNH, and LiNH2 in the heating dehydrogenation process under Ar carrier gas or very low hydrogen pressure, exhibiting a two-peak dehydrogenation process. For the sample under high hydrogen pressure, Li2K(NH2)3 can react with LiH to convert into Li3K(NH2)4 and further to form KH and LiNH2 in the heating process, showing a one-peak dehydrogenation process under 5 bar hydrogen. The hydrogen pressure-dependent reactions of K-containing additives in the Mg(NH2)2-2LiH system lead to a different hydrogen storage performance under different dehydrogenation conditions.

Improved kinetic behaviour of Mg(NH 2) 2-2LiH doped with nanostructured K-modified-Li xTi yO z for hydrogen storage. Sci Rep 2020; 10:8. [PMID: 31911604 PMCID: PMC6946654 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-55770-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2019] [Accepted: 11/27/2019] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
The system Mg(NH2)2 + 2LiH is considered as an interesting solid-state hydrogen storage material owing to its low thermodynamic stability of ca. 40 kJ/mol H2 and high gravimetric hydrogen capacity of 5.6 wt.%. However, high kinetic barriers lead to slow absorption/desorption rates even at relatively high temperatures (>180 °C). In this work, we investigate the effects of the addition of K-modified LixTiyOz on the absorption/desorption behaviour of the Mg(NH2)2 + 2LiH system. In comparison with the pristine Mg(NH2)2 + 2LiH, the system containing a tiny amount of nanostructured K-modified LixTiyOz shows enhanced absorption/desorption behaviour. The doped material presents a sensibly reduced (∼30 °C) desorption onset temperature, notably shorter hydrogen absorption/desorption times and reversible hydrogen capacity of about 3 wt.% H2 upon cycling. Studies on the absorption/desorption processes and micro/nanostructural characterizations of the Mg(NH2)2 + 2LiH + K-modified LixTiyOz system hint to the fact that the presence of in situ formed nanostructure K2TiO3 is the main responsible for the observed improved kinetic behaviour.

Abstract
The present study deals with the material tailoring of Mg(NH2)2-2LiH through dual borohydrides: the reactive LiBH4 and the non-reactive NaBH4. Furthermore, a pulverizer, as well as a catalyst FeTi, has been added in order to facilitate hydrogen sorption. Addition of LiBH4 to LiNH2 in a 1 : 3 molar ratio leads to the formation of Li4(BH4)(NH2)3 which also acts as a catalyst. However, the addition of NaBH4 doesn't lead to any compound formation but shows a catalytic effect. The onset dehydrogenation temperature of thermally treated Mg(NH2)2-2LiH/(Li4(BH4)(NH2)3-NaBH4) is 142 °C as against 196 °C for the basic material Mg(NH2)2-2LiH. However, with the FeTi catalyzed Mg(NH2)2-2LiH/(Li4(BH4)(NH2)3-NaBH4, it has been reduced to 120 °C. This is better than other similar amide/hydride composites where it is 149 °C (when the basic material is catalyzed with LiBH4). The FeTi catalyzed Mg(NH2)2-2LiH/(Li4(BH4)(NH2)3-NaBH4 sample shows better de/re-hydrogenation kinetics as it desorbs 3.9 ± 0.04 wt% and absorbs nearly 4.1 ± 0.04 wt% both within 30 min at 170 °C (with the H2 pressure being 0.1 MPa for desorption and 7 MPa for absorption). The eventual hydrogen storage capacity of Mg(NH2)2-2LiH/(Li4(BH4)(NH2)3-NaBH4 together with FeTi has been found to be ∼5.0 wt%. To make the effect of catalysts intelligible, we have put forward in a schematic way the role of Li and Na borohydrides with FeTi for improving the hydrogen sorption properties of Mg(NH2)2-2LiH.

Abstract
Considerable efforts have been devoted to the catalytic modification of hydrogen storage materials. The K-modified Mg(NH2 )2 /2 LiH composite is a typical model for such studies. In this work, we analyze the origin of the kinetic barrier in the first step of the dehydrogenation and investigate how K catalyzes this heterogeneous solid-state reaction. Our results indicate that the interface reaction of Mg(NH2 )2 and LiH is the main source of the kinetic barrier at the early stage of the dehydrogenation for the intensively ball-milled Mg(NH2 )2 /2 LiH sample. K can effectively activate Mg(NH2 )2 as well as promote LiH to participate in the dehydrogenation. Three K species of KH, K2 Mg(NH2 )4 , and Li3 K(NH2 )4 likely transform circularly in the dehydrogenation (KH↔K2 Mg(NH2 )4 ↔KLi3 (NH2 )4 ), which creates a more energy-favorable pathway and thus leads to the overall kinetic enhancement. This catalytic role of K in the amide/hydride system is different from the conventional catalysis of transition metals in the alanate system.

Abstract
The lack of a high capacity hydrogen storage material is a major barrier to the implementation of the hydrogen economy. To accelerate discovery of such materials, we have developed a high-throughput workflow for screening of hydrogen storage materials in which candidate materials are synthesized and characterized via highly parallel ball mills and volumetric gas sorption instruments, respectively. The workflow was used to identify mixed imides with significantly enhanced absorption rates relative to Li2Mg(NH)2. The most promising material, 2LiNH2:MgH2 + 5 atom % LiBH4 + 0.5 atom % La, exhibits the best balance of absorption rate, capacity, and cycle-life, absorbing >4 wt % H2 in 1 h at 120 °C after 11 absorption-desorption cycles.
