| Abstract | Upon hydrogen absorption, magnesium (Mg) spontaneously converts to the thermodynamically favoured β-MgH2 phase, but this leads to hydrogen release/uptake far from the desired low temperatures and fast kinetics. Conversion to the metastable γ-MgH2 phase should lead to improved hydrogen sorption properties. However, experimental verification of such a hypothesis remained distant. In this work, we report the electrochemical synthesis of nanosized Mg leading to the formation of a mixed γ/β hydride phase upon hydrogen absorption with a high γ-MgH2 content (29.6%). More remarkably, full release of hydrogen from these phases occurred at 200 °C only and upon hydrogen reabsorption at 100 °C, the γ/β-MgH2 mixture was restored. It was thus possible to determine for the first time the effect of γ-MgH2 on the kinetic and thermodynamic properties of the Mg/H2 reaction. The presence of γ-MgH2 was found to lead to a significant reduction of the apparent activation energy from 106.2 ± 4.0 to 69.1 ± 2.9 kJ mol−1 and a reduction of the Mg/H2 reaction enthalpy from 74.8 ± 1.0 to 57.7 ± 5.3 kJ mol−1 H2. However, this was accompanied by a concomitant decrease in entropy limiting the reduction of hydrogen desorption temperatures. γ-MgH2 can thus lead to improve hydrogen kinetics but to reach ambient hydrogen uptake and release ways to tune the enthalpy/entropy compensation effects have to be devised. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
