In this paper, we have carried out investigations on admixing carbon nanotubes (CNT) to increase the desorption rate of hydrogen in NaA1H(4). So far only transition metal Ti has been attempted as the suitable dopant for making NaA1H4 (purified version) a viable hydrogen storage material by increasing the hydrogen desorption rate. Out of the various materials corresponding to NaA1H(4)-x mol% CNT (x = 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12), we have found that the material with x = 8 mol% is the optimum material. It shows highest desorption rate leading to 3.3 wt. % of H-2 at similar to 160 degrees C within 2 h for the first dissociation reaction. The CNT admixed NaAIH4 has also been found to exhibit good rehydrogenation characteristics (reversibility on hydrogenation up to similar to 4.2 wt.%). A feasible mechanism for the improvement of hydrogen desorption characteristics has been put forward. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
