Abstract

Developing safer and more efficient hydrogen storage technology is a pivotal step to realizing the hydrogen economy. Owing to the lightweight, high hydrogen storage density and abundant reserves, MgH2 has been widely studied as one of the most promising solid-state hydrogen storage materials. However, defects such as stable thermodynamics, sluggish kinetics and rapid capacity decay have seriously hindered its practical application. This article reviews recent advances in catalyst doping and nanostructures for improved kinetic performance of MgH2/Mg systems for hydrogen release/absorption, the tuning of their thermodynamic stability properties by alloying and reactant destabilization, and the dual thermodynamic and kinetic optimization of the MgH2/Mg system achieved by nanoconfinement with in situ catalysis and ball milling with in situ aerosol spraying, aiming to open new perspectives for the scale-up of MgH2 for hydrogen storage applications.

摘要

开发安全、高效的储氢技术是实现氢经济的关键步骤。由于重量轻、储氢密度高和储量丰富，MgH2作为最有前途的固态储氢材料之一已被广泛研究。然而，稳定的热力学、迟缓的动力学和快速的容量衰减等缺陷严重阻碍了其在实际中的应用。这篇文章综述了催化剂掺杂和结构纳米化在MgH2/Mg体系放/吸氢动力学性能改进方面的最新进展，合金化和反应物失稳对其热力学稳定性能的调整。以及通过纳米限域催化和高能球磨结合气溶胶喷雾对MgH2/Mg体系放/吸氢热力学和动力学的双重优化，旨在为MgH2的规模化储氢应用开拓新的视角。
