Liquid-Phase Chemical Hydrogen Storage: Catalytic Hydrogen Generation under Ambient Conditions

There is a demand for a sufficient and sustainable enery supply. Hence, the search for applicable hydrogen storage materials is extremely important owing to the diversified merits of hydrogen energy lithitum and sodium borohydride ammonia borane, hydrazine and formic acid have been extensively investigated as promising hydrogen storage materials based on their relatively high hydrogen content Significant advances, such as hydrogen temperatures and reaction kinetics, have been made in the catalytic hydrolysis of aqueous lithium and sodium borohydride and ammonia borane as well as in the catalytic decomposition of hydrous hudrazine and formic acid in this Minireview we briegly survey the research progresses in catalytic hydrogen generation from these liquid-phase chemical hydrogen storage materials.
