Nb2O5 nanoparticles with an average size of 10 nm supported on a rhombic dodecahedral MOF were synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction and calcination process. The prepared catalyst significantly improved the hydrogen storage behavior of MgH2. The addition of Nb2O5@MOF effectively enhanced the hydrogen desorption and absorption capacities of MgH2, with reduced activation energies. The composite exhibited good cyclic stability and the Nb2O5 particles were uniformly distributed on the surface of MgH2 matrix.
Nb2O5 nanoparticles with an average particle size of 10 nm supported on a rhombic dodecahedral metal organic framework (MOF) were successfully synthesized by a facile one-pot hydrothermal reaction and subsequent calcination process. Experimental results demonstrated that the prepared catalyst drastically improved the hydrogen storage behavior of MgH2. 7 wt% Nb2O5@MOF doped MgH2 started to desorb hydrogen at 181.9 degrees C and 6.2 wt% hydrogen could be released within 2.6 min and 6.3 min at 275 degrees C and 250 degrees C, respectively. The fully dehydrogenated composite also displayed excellent hydrogenation by decreasing the onset absorption temperature to 25 degrees C and taking up 4.9 wt% and 6.5 wt% hydrogen within 6 min at 175 degrees C and 150 degrees C, respectively. Moreover, the corresponding activation energy was calculated to be 75.57 +/- 4.16 kJ mol-1 for desorption reaction and 51.38 +/- 1.09 kJ mol-1 for absorption reaction. After 20 cycles, 0.5 wt% hydrogen capacity was lost for the MgH2+7 wt% Nb2O5@MOF composite, much lower than 1.5 wt% of the MgH2+7 wt% Nb2O5 composite. However, the addition of Nb2O5@MOF had limited effect on reducing the dehydrogenation enthalpy of MgH2. Microstructure analysis revealed that Nb2O5 particles were uniformly distributed on surface of the MgH2 matrix and synergistically improved the hydrogen storage property of MgH2 with MOF.(c) 2021 Institute of Process Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
