Abstract

Magnesium hydride is considered as one of the most interesting alternatives for the reversible storage of hydrogen. In this study,The feasibility and reaction process of different materials(Mg and pretreated Al powders(mainly composed of Al and Ni))were discussed and investigated by thermodynamic calculation. The effects of material proportioning, mill time, mill energy density were also investigated by XRD analysis and TG-DSC technique, and analyzed the essence mechanism. The results show that nano-sized MgH2 and Mg(AlH4)2 could be directly synthesized by pure Mg and pretreated Al powder, The product composite hydrides release 2.7wt% H2 through multi-step decompositions, of which the starting endothermic peaks are as low as 265°C.
