The hydrogen storage properties and mechanisms of the Mg(NH2)2–2LiH system with potassium halides (KF, KCl, KBr, and KI) were investigated and discussed. The results show that the KF-added sample exhibits superior hydrogen storage properties as ∼5.0 wt % of hydrogen can be reversibly stored in the 0.08KF-added sample via a two-stage reaction with an onset dehydrogenation temperature of 80 °C. However, hydrogen storage behaviors of the samples with KCl, KBr, and KI remain almost unchanged. The fact that KF can readily react with LiH to convert to KH and LiF due to the favorable thermodynamics during ball milling should be the primary reason for its significant effects, as the presence of KH provides a synergetic thermodynamic and kinetic destabilization in the hydrogen storage reaction of the Mg(NH2)2–2LiH system by declining the activation energy of the first-step dehydrogenation as a catalyst and reducing the desorption enthalpy change of the second step as a reactant. The understanding on the role playe...
