Hydrogen fuels represent a clean energy option, but a major hurdle in making its use more mainstream is efficient storage.

Nanoscale hydrides desorb and absorb hydrogen at faster rates and lower temperatures than bulk hydrides because of their high surface areas, abundant grain boundaries and short diffusion distances. No ...

Ammonia is the feedstock for nitrogen fertilizers and thus vital to the sustainable development of society. Industrial ammonia synthesis catalyzed by Fe or Ru is carried out under high temperature and ...

Hydrogen storage is limited by high pressure or cold tanks. Metal hydrides offer efficiency. A large curated database reveals key atomic traits to guide design.

Scientists from Tohoku University and the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization have developed a new complex hydride lithium superionic conductor that could result in all-solid-state batteries ...

Hydrogen fuels represent a clean energy option, but a major hurdle in making its use more mainstream is efficient storage.

Hitachi, Ltd. and Tohoku University's Advanced Institute for Materials Research have developed a basic technology to reduce the internal resistance of the all-solid-state lithium ion battery using a ...

Scientists have developed a new complex hydride lithium superionic conductor that could result in all-solid-state batteries with the highest energy density to date. Scientists from Tohoku University ...
