Description

Metal Hydrides for Hydrogen-Based Energy Storage, Volume 2: Applications comprehensively describes the applications of the most important group of hydrogen storage materials: metal hydrides. The book is one of a pair of companion volumes, with the other being Metal Hydrides for Hydrogen-Based Energy Storage, Volume 1: Fundamentals.

In Volume 2, an international team of renowned experts explores the applications of solid state materials for hydrogen storage. The content covers mechanochemical synthesis processes in metal-hydrogen systems; multiscale property manipulation of advanced functional materials by gas-solid reactions; thin-film metal hydrides; metal hydrides studied by synchrotron XRD and total scattering; neutron diffraction studies of metal-hydrogen systems; hydrogen storage systems; metal hydride hydrogen compressors; hydride-based thermal energy storage; hydrogen generation by hydrolysis process; metal hydrides as negative electrodes of rechargeable batteries; boron-based hydrides as solid electrolytes used in all-solid batteries; and the future outlook of progress in hydrogen storage materials and technologies.
