Summary: Magnesium hydroxide has gained attention for its potential as a hydrogen storage material, but its stability and slow kinetic activity limit its applications. To improve its hydrogen storage capacity, ternary transition metal nitride NiCoN was used to catalyze MgH2 through hydrothermal and calcination techniques. The addition of 6 wt% NiCoN lowered the dehydrogenation temperature to 164.4 degrees C and increased the hydrogen desorption rate. The presence of intermediate products, Mg2Ni/Mg2NiH4 and Mg2Co/Mg2CoH5, contributed to the enhanced hydrogen absorption/desorption behavior and the retention rate of 94% even after 40 cycles.

Summary: This study reports real-time observations of the dehydrogenation of a Mg2FeH6-MgH2 composite using in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with advanced spatial and temporal resolution. Through careful control and systematic variations of the reaction temperature and electron dose rate, the characteristic decomposition of Mg2FeH6 into Mg and Fe on the nanometer scale is visualized. The formation and growth of nanostructured Fe clusters in Mg metal during dehydrogenation are verified, and the desorption kinetics of the two coexisting phases are separately evaluated. These findings provide useful guidelines for designing hydrogen sorption conditions and improving solid-state hydrogen storage systems.

Summary: With the urgent need to find green, low-cost, and high-efficiency energy resources due to the depletion of fossil fuels and global warming, hydrogen has been considered as a potential alternative. However, effective and safe hydrogen storage techniques are now becoming a bottleneck for the hydrogen economy. Magnesium-based hydrogen storage materials have garnered interest due to their high storage capacity, low cost, and excellent reversibility. Nano-structuring has proven to be an effective strategy to enhance the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of these materials.

Summary: Hydrogen storage is a crucial aspect of the hydrogen economy, and solid-state hydrogen storage is the most promising approach. In this study, a ternary transition metal sulfide FeNi2S4 with a hollow balloon structure was designed as a catalyst for MgH2 to enhance its dehydrogenation/hydrogenation performance by constructing a MgH2/Mg2NiH4-MgS/Fe system.

Summary: The aggravation of energy and environmental issues has led to the development of sustainable energy storage technologies. Among them, emerging ammonium-ion storage is considered a promising competitor due to its plentiful resources, inherent safety, fast diffusion capability, and unique storage mechanism. However, the development of NH4-ion storage devices is still in its early stage, and finding suitable electrode materials is crucial for high-performance devices. This article provides a comprehensive review on recent advances of electrode materials for NH4-ion storage devices and introduces various NH4-ion storage devices, such as ammonium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, capacitors, dual-ion batteries, and hybrid batteries. It concludes with perspectives on future developments in order to facilitate their large-scale energy storage applications.

Summary: The use of nanomaterials for hydrogen storage is important, but current potential nanomaterials have low density and stability at room temperature. This study investigates the hydrogen storage capabilities of Na-, K- and Ca-decorated B-doped siligene monolayer (BSiGeML) using density functional theory calculations. The results show that boron doping improves the interaction between metal adatoms and the siligene monolayer. K- and Ca-decorated BSiGeML can bind up to seven H2 molecules per metal adatom, while Na-decorated BSiGeML only adsorbs four H2 molecules per site. At room temperature, all H2 molecules adsorbed on Na- and Ca-decorated BSiGeML are stable at mild pressure. Metal decoration on both sides of BSiGeML may exceed the target of 5.5 wt% hydrogen gravimetric density proposed by DOE for 2025. K- and Ca-decorated BSiGeML could be efficient hydrogen molecular storage media compared to undoped SiGeML and other 2D pristine materials.

Summary: Hydrogen embrittlement is a well-known phenomenon in high-strength and storage materials, causing subcritical crack growth, fracture initiation, loss in mechanical properties, and catastrophic failure. The fundamental mechanism of hydrogen embrittlement remains unclear, although various mechanisms responsible for crack development, growth, and fracture have been discussed and reported.

Summary: Hydrogen energy is considered important for low carbon energy and has wide application prospects. The production of hydrogen plays a crucial role in the hydrogen industry chain. The safe and stable acquisition of hydrogen remains a pressing issue, particularly for temporary or portable usage scenarios, due to inadequate infrastructure.

Summary: The hydrogen content during ab-/desorption of complex metal hydrides can be monitored via FTIR-ATR spectroscopy. Changes in the surface morphology of the pellet sample during cycling may affect the spectral changes and degrade the optical signal stability. Investigation of the desorption behavior of TiCl3-doped NaAlH4 compacts showed that optical signal degradation occurs with increasing ab-/desorption cycles, and temperature changes during cycling further contribute to the signal degradation. The roughening of the pellet surface observed through SEM and SFM measurements is attributed to cycling. Different approaches have been explored to ensure long-term signal coupling for reliable optical monitoring, and dimensional changes in surface flatness were identified as the primary factor controlling the optical signal quality. The findings have implications for the improvement of measurement methods and the development of fuel level sensors for solid-state hydrogen storage systems.

Summary: In this work, Li3VO4@LiVO2 was introduced into the Mg(NH2)2-2LiH system to enhance the hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetic characteristics. The addition of 10 wt% Li3VO4@LiVO2 greatly improved the hydrogen storage properties, with significant increase in hydrogen absorption and desorption rates, and decrease in the activation energy of hydrogen desorption. Moreover, Li3VO4@LiVO2 also increased the hydrogen absorption and desorption capacities of the sample.
