Abstract
Mg hydride is a competitive candidates for hydrogen storage based on its high gravimetric hydrogen capacity and accessibility. In this study, a small amount of KOH and graphene were added into MgH2 by high energy ball milling. MgH2 doped with both KOH and graphene has a greatly improved hydrogen storage performance. The existence of graphene and the in-situ formed KMgH3 and MgO decreased activation energy of MgH2 to 109.89 ± 6.03 kJ/mol. The both KOH and graphene doped sample has a reversibly capacity of 5.43 wt % H2 and can released H2 as much as 6.36 times and 1.84 times faster than those of undoped sample and only KOH doped sample at 300 °C, respectively. The addition of graphene not only can provide more “H diffusion channels”, but also can disperse the catalyst.
