The design of catalysts with excellent catalytic activity plays an important role in the field of solid-state hydrogen storage of new energy sources. Herein, a novel hydrangea-like NiO@NiMoO 4 composite catalyst was prepared through a facile hydrothermal reaction. Subsequently, NiO@NiMoO 4 was doped into MgH 2 by ball milling to solve the problems of high dehydrogenation temperature and slow desorption kinetics of MgH 2 . It can be seen from the experimental results that the MgH 2 + 10 wt% NiO@NiMoO 4 composite starts to dehydrogenate at about 190 °C, which is about 170 °C lower than that of pure MgH 2 . Meanwhile, after complete dehydrogenation, the composites can start to absorb hydrogen below 40 °C. Compared with pure MgH 2 , the activation energy of hydrogen absorption and dehydrogenation of the composite decreased by 47.6 kJ/mol and 46.5 kJ/mol, respectively. In 10th cycle tests, the MgH 2 + 10 wt% NiO@NiMoO 4 composite still has good cycle stability. After adding a small amount of biomass charcoal, the hydrogen storage capacity can even be maintained above 97%. Furthermore, the characterization results show that the in situ generated new species Mo and Mg 2 Ni/Mg 2 NiH 4 synergistically promote the adsorption and dissociation of hydrogen. This new synergistic mechanism provides new comprehensive insights for improving reversible hydrogen storage in MgH 2 .

The facile construction of nanoscale NbH x supported by Ti 3 C 2 (NbH x @Ti 3 C 2 ) was achieved using facile ball milling strategy to improve the hydrogen desorption kinetics and reversibility of magnesium borohydride (Mg(BH 4 ) 2 ). The doping of 30 wt% NbH x @Ti 3 C 2 catalyst reduced the onset dehydrogenation temperature of Mg(BH 4 ) 2 to 71.2 °C. Additionally, the Mg(BH 4 ) 2 + 30NbH x @Ti 3 C 2 composite achieved remarkable hydrogen release of over 9.2 wt% at a temperature as low as 230 °C, indicating unexpected dehydrogenation kinetics. Moreover, the reversibility of NbH x @Ti 3 C 2 doped Mg(BH 4 ) 2 was retained to more than 4.2 wt% after four cycles, which was increased by 68% compared to that of undoped Mg(BH 4 ) 2 . The strong catalysis of NbH x @Ti 3 C 2 catalyst could be attributed to the synergistic effect of NbH x and Ti 3 C 2 in hydrogen spillover and diffusion. NbH x acted as a “hydrogen pump” for effective hydrogen spillover, while Ti 3 C 2 created numerous diffusion channels for hydrogen dissolution and provided the active catalytic site to facilitate the re/dehydrogenation of Mg(BH 4 ) 2 .

One of the most important technologies for the sustainable development of energy in the future is solid-state hydrogen storage. This study employed etching methods to fabricate two-dimensional layered catalyst Mo 2 Ti 2 C 3 MXene, which was compared with unetched MAX phases Mo 2 Ti 2 AlC 3 and Ti 3 C 2 , as well as Mo 2 C. Through mechanical ball milling, these materials were mixed with MgH 2 to prepare composite materials, including MgH 2 + Ti 2 C 3 , MgH 2 + Mo 2 C, MgH 2 + Mo 2 Ti 2 AlC 3 , and MgH 2 + Mo 2 Ti 2 C 3 . According to the study, Mo 2 Ti 2 C 3 demonstrates the synergistic catalytic actions of Ti and Mo in contrast to Ti 2 C 3 and Mo 2 C. The composite material MgH 2 + Mo 2 Ti 2 C 3 lowers the initial dehydrogenation temperature of MgH 2 to 180 °C, which is 165 °C lower than pure MgH 2 . After 30 min at 250 °C, the dehydrogenation amount is approximately 5.85 wt%. Hydrogen absorption begins at 40 °C and reaches approximately 5.75 wt% at 150 °C. Additionally, it maintains a reversible hydrogen storage capacity of up to 96 % even after 20th cycles at 300 °C. This is because Mo 2 Ti 2 C 3 has one less layer of Al than Mo 2 Ti 2 AlC 3 , which results in a wider interlayer spacing, more active sites for MgH 2 , and facilitates hydrogen molecule dissociation and recombination.

A comparative study was performed on four LiBH 4 -based hydrogen storage composites 2LiBH 4 + MgX 2 and 6LiBH 4 + CaX 2 (X = H and F). The composites with fluorides and those with corresponding hydrides exhibited similar hydrogen storage properties. The dehydrogenation of 2LiBH 4 + MgF 2 demonstrated a strong dependence on the hydrogen back pressure , similar to that of 2LiBH 4 + MgH 2 . The reversible hydrogen storage of 2LiBH 4 + MgF 2 was achieved under a back pressure of 5 bar at 450 °C. Dehydrogenation under lower H 2 pressures resulted in the production of Mg and thus a partial reversibility. In contrast, both 6LiBH 4 + CaH 2 and 6LiBH 4 + CaF 2 revealed reversible hydrogen storage properties regardless of the hydrogen back pressure. The structural difference between MgB 2 and CaB 6 may account for the observed differences in hydrogen storage properties of the Mg- and Ca-containing LiBH 4 reactive composites.

A synergetic approach of nanoconfinement coupling with in-situ formed nanocatalysts was developed to fabricate a novel and robust nano-LiBH 4 system. The nanoconfining scaffold exhibits an unparalleled 3D hierarchical architecture featuring micro-, meso-, and macro-pores assembled by 2D interconnected nanosheets that consist of 0D hollow nitrogen-doped carbon nanocages. This structure possesses an accumulated pore width of 7.79 nm, extremely high pore volumes of 3.16 cm 3 /g, and a theoretical loading capacity of 67.9 wt% for LiBH 4 . The in-situ formed NbB 2 species transformed from initial NbF 5 nanoparticles is confirmed as the final active nanocatalyst. It is worth mentioning that the defective N heteroatoms within the scaffold can serve the role of coordinating with Nb cations and weaken the B-H bonds as supported by the DFT calculations. With an optimized loading of 50 wt% LiBH 4 , the initial dehydrogenation temperatures can be reduced to 140.6 °C, and the system can rapidly release 7.55 wt% H 2 at 320 °C within 39 min. Furthermore, the nanoconfined system exhibits excellent low-temperature reversibility, retaining 93 % of its capacity after 20 cycles at 300 °C. This study provides innovative perspectives on the design of novel scaffold structures doped with defective heteroatoms for the nanoconfinement and synergetic catalysis of de/rehydrogenation for metal borohydrides.

Owing to the orbital hybridization between the transition metal and the B element and the electron-trapping effect of the B element, transition metal borides are considered very promising materials for energy catalysis. In this work, an amorphous scaly high-entropy boride (HEB) with electron traps was designed and fabricated via a facile reduction method to improve the hydrogen storage properties of magnesium hydride (MgH 2 ). For dehydrogenation, the onset temperature of MgH 2 + 10wt% HEB was dropped to 187.4°C; besides, the composite exhibited superior isothermal kinetics and the activation energy of the composite was reduced from (212.78 ± 3.93) to (65.04 ± 2.81) kJ/mol. In addition, MgH 2 + 10wt% HEB could absorb hydrogen at 21.5°C, and 5.02wt% H 2 was charged in 50 min at 75°C. For reversible hydrogen storage capacity tests, the composite maintained a retention rate of 97% with 6.47wt% hydrogen capacity after 30 cycles. Combining microstructure evidence with hydrogen storage performance, the catalytic mechanism was proposed. During ball milling, scaly high-entropy borides riveted a large number of heterogeneous active sites on the surface of MgH 2 . Driven by the cocktail effect as well as the orbital hybridization of metal borides, numerous active sites steadily enhanced the hydrogen storage reactions in MgH 2 .
