Abstract
The transport sector is an important source of CO2 emissions worldwide, and a transition towards hydrogen-fuelled vehicles is a potential remedy. These vehicles require improvements in storage capacities, which can be realised by forming the interstitial hydrides of High-Entropy Alloys (HEAs) by synthesising single-phase hydrides with a randomised atomic distribution of the metal elements within these alloys. Not only is the randomness of elemental distribution in the hydride essential, so too is the affinity of the individual components towards hydride formation, which drastically improves the prospective storage. By evaluating the composition and properties of the best-performing hydride forming alloys, various parameters strongly influencing hydrogen capacities can be inferred. Herein, the state of literature regarding the parameters with the highest importance for hydrogen sorption in HEAs is discussed for the first time with particular focus on how they may be introduced to storage on-board vehicles.
