Heterostructured VF4@Ti3C2 catalyst improving reversible hydrogen storage properties of Mg(BH4)2
For solid-state hydrogen storage, Mg(BH 4 ) 2 has long been recognized as a promising material. However, its higher thermal stability is distant from conditions for practical application. Herein, it is effectively established that VF 4 nanoparticles anchored on 2D Mxene Ti 3 C 2 (VF 4 @Ti 3 C 2 ) have efficiently catalytic effects towards the hydrogen storage process of Mg(BH 4 ) 2 . The MBH-VF 4 @Ti 3 C 2 sample started releasing hydrogen at 90 °C, which was 182 °C and 55 °C lower than those of additive-free Mg(BH 4 ) 2 and MBH-20Ti 3 C 2 composites. Additionally, the MBH-20VF 4 @Ti 3 C 2 composite desorbed more than 8 wt% H 2 at 275 °C. The activation energies of dehydrogenation were reduced, and the improved reversibility of VF 4 @Ti 3 C 2 -doped Mg(BH 4 ) 2 was also discussed. According to microstructural study, the heterostructural VF 4 @Ti 3 C 2 interacted with Mg(BH 4 ) 2 to produce VH 2.01 and metallic Ti during re/dehydrogenation, which worked as active species to improve hydrogen storage performance in Mg(BH 4 ) 2 .
